Recommendations for making online learning
work in your school
Success is greatly
enhanced when student support structures are in place. All Oregon Online
students and/or other alternative students can be scheduled into one
class period with a mentor present. Alternatively, Oregon Online students
may be throughout the day using labs, mini-labs, media center
or other school computer arrangements and check in with a mentor periodically.
