eLEARN Virginia: a free statewide distance learning GED program (9-19-07)

eLEARN Virginia is a new statewide distance learning initiative, funded by the DOE/OAEL and managed by the VALRC, now freely available to your GED students. eLEARN Va is a great option for any student who has access to a networked computer and either a) can’t attend face-to-face GED classes at your center, b) must interrupt their face-to-face GED class due to employment, transportation, or childcare issues, or c) wants supplementary GED lessons to work on outside of their regular face-to-face GED class. eLEARN Va is also an option for any out of school youth, formally released from compulsory attendance, interested in working towards a GED online.

To enroll, students must have valid TABE/CASAS scores (with a minimum of 520/221 on Reading), a working email address, basic computer skills, and a willingness to work at least 3 hours a week on their online lessons. Each student will be matched with their own online mentor who will prepare an individualized learning plan for them using a number of powerful online programs, including GED Connection, KeyTrain, Instruction Targeted for TABE Success (ITTS), PreGED Online, and GED Pathway. Mentors will also provide counseling and technical assistance to students as they move through their online lessons, and can work with local adult ed teachers to find the best educational solutions for these students. eLEARN Virginia will also track the hours and progress of online students and will report this data back to your program.

The 2007 notice gave an enrollment website, a toll-free number and the project manager’s e-mail. They are no longer in service and are not repeated here.
