Engaging Students in New Ways
Think that online classes are just text and questions on a computer
screen? Not at Provost Academy!
Provost Academy courses uniquely engage students and address multiple learning styles through an expertly designed multi-media mix of streaming videos, flash-based activities, podcasts, text and voice discussion forums, blog writing, on-demand synchronous tutoring, web exploration and research, objective and subjective assessments, Discovery Education® videos, custom textbooks and much more. Students thoroughly cover each concept though essential instruction, re-teaching, extension activities and assessments.
Individualized Learning
Thanks to our proprietary modular curriculum design, Provost Academy courses can be adapted to fit your student's individual needs.
Content can be rearranged and customized for individual learning paths based on testing and discussions with academic advisors and instructors. This, coupled with the ability to add live course meetings and a written textbook which presents an entirely different approach to each lesson, allows Provost Academy to differentiate instruction for every student.
Staying on Track
Students take daily assessments in every lesson, and our proprietary software program immediately alerts you and your student's instructors if your student falls behind in any portion of the material. Students have clear, achievable goals in each lesson each day, which allows them to focus, see accomplishments and stay motivated. Parents and students can easily see learning progress, assignments, and grades at a glance on their own personal home page.
Quality
Your student's Provost Academy courses are aligned to South Carolina state standards and are designed to fit graduation requirements for South Carolina.
Provost Academy's curriculum was developed by the most experienced team in the industry, with more than 17 years of proven experience boosting student achievement, and nearly a decade in teaching and developing curriculum and technology for online learning. Ongoing development is also in partnership with Dr. Paul Kim, Assistant Dean of the Stanford University School of Education.
