Anyone have any experience with taking Latin I online ? What are the pros and cons ?
Son considering it for an elective and doubtful he would take Latin 2, but not sure.
Thanks for replies.
So I did not take any online classes in high school, but one obvious aspect to consider is how colleges would look at the online class. You haven’t stated what source is offering the Latin I online class and how grading, examinations, and credit for the class will work out. It’s a good idea to think carefully through these issues and to think about how a college’s admissions committee would view the online class.
I took many online courses for my MBA, and you really have to be self-motivated because there is no daily presence pushing you to do the work. As for Latin specifically, my D20 takes it in a regular high school setting, and it is different from her in-school French classes. There is more of a focus on Roman history and much less emphasis on pronounciation and speaking skills.
