Student Expecations

Students intending to register need to be aware of the following:

  • Course content is delivered online; paper copies are not available.
  • Students need to have the appropriate hardware to connect and learn online. (A strong internet connection and a desktop or laptop computer)
  • Success in online courses relies heavily on the ability to self-start and self-motivate as a learner.

Attendance will be reported once per week. Being marks absent means that the student has not been attending to learning for the entire week. Attendance to learning with PBB means:

  • Completing assigned learning tasks regularly
  • Connecting to learning resources regularly 
  • Connecting to teachers at least weekly via live sessions, individual appointments, or electronic communication (email or chat) of an academic nature

Students who have previously demonstrated a lack of attendance to learning with PBB or with their home school may not have their registration request for classes with PBB accepted.

I have to admit that when I enrolled last September, I had thought the journey to today, would have been much more difficult and arduous than turned out to be the case.
