Interest and Enthusiasm... "I wish I had the words to adequately describe how these courses have sparked an interest and an enthusiasm for learning in our daughter. Her interest in graphics and web design motivated our initial enrolling in the Digital Learning course.
As was promised, it was frustrating at times, but that challenged our daughter to analyze and problem-solve. The result was greater confidence, as well as new skills that she has been able to incorporate in other areas. She so appreciates the creative assignments, the relationships with other classmates, and the encouragement and humor of the teacher. When the initial course was completed, it was our daughter who asked to sign up for two more classes." (Jody, parent) |
Capacity-building... "I have grown in capacity in that I now know how to create a website, edit photos, make online documents and embed them into a webpage.
I would recommend it because it is a great way to learn more computer skills, especially because you have a teacher to guide you along. In contrast to trying to learn some of these skills on your own using more of a trial and error approach." (Brent, student) "Some of the assignments were hard but the deadlines always helped me to work through the difficulties and I learned so many new things by pressing on. The course helped me to become proficient and I grew more confident in my digital skills." (Rachel, student) For more testimonials from IVL families: www.facebook.com/impactvirtual |
