Video Course
The Classical Historian is proud to present an online video course. Each online video course contains short, succinct video lessons and paper lessons that can be downloaded, printed, or studied online. At the end of each unit is a test. To pass the test, the student needs to score a 75% or better. The student may continue to the next unit only when he passes the test. All of the information on each unit test is contained in the videos and pdf lessons. At the successful completion of the course, ncluding passing the final test, the student receives a Completion of Course certificate.
Convenience: Students may access the video course whenever they can, at any time of day. Students may proceed at their own pace. Access to a a course is for 12 months from the date of purchase.
Cost: The cost of a video course is considerably less than the cost of an online course.
Materials: There are no other required materials to purchase. Everything needed to complete the course is provided in the video and the pdf lessons.
How does it work? Within 48 hours of purchase of a course, the parent receives a username and password via email. The student then logs in and begins. If the video lesson has a pdf lesson, the student first opens the pdf lesson and studies the vocabulary and the map or graph. The student then watches the accompanying video(s). The student continues in this fashion until all pdfs and lessons of the unit have been viewed and studied. Then, the student takes the unit test. If the student passes the test with a score of 75% or better, he may continue with the course. If the test is not passed, the student needs to study more and retake the test before continuing with the course.
