Online Open Courses

Such as NROC or MIT's, Yale's, etc.

Has anyone used these as part of their HS curriculum?

If so, Which one and what was your opinion?

[Corraleno]

I don't use the "filmed lecture" type of courses (MIT, Yale, iTunes U, etc) because I prefer the Teaching Company lectures, but I do like the interactive courses on Hippocampus. I especially like the fact that you can click on the "Textbook" tab, choose your textbook, and it provides correlations between the modules and your text, complete with page numbers!

Thanks Jackie, I will check them out.

These others are textbook linked also, and open to the public.

for AP U.S. Government. Dd loved it and did very well on the test. You just have to have the discipline to do it.
