Imagine taking courses online with a diverse

group of classmates from around the world. You

check feedback from your teacher and see what

you’ll be working on this week. You update your

team’s wiki site with new information you found for

your group project. You reply to a class discussion,

explaining why you disagree with a recent comment.

You post a question, and three classmates respond

with answers while you are still online.

All this is possible with courses offered by your

school through The VHS Collaborative (VHS).

4I really enjoyed the fact that I

got to engage with other students

who were interested in criminol-

ogy! The feedback and other

comments/thoughts really helped

me understand the course better!

Your education just got more social.

Ready to try new courses your school doesn’t offer?

4�Choose from 20 different Advanced Placement® courses

4�Take interesting electives like Bad Boys in Literature, Psychology of Crime, and Journalism in the Digital Age

4�Prepare for a career with courses like Bioethics, Preveterinary Medicine, Video Game Design, or Constitutional Law

With almost 200 VHS courses, you’re sure to find something that’s interesting to you!

With VHS courses, you control where and

when you learn. Work on your course during an

assigned period, or on your own time. Log on to

access lessons, participate in discussions and

group projects, and complete assignments by

the weekly deadlines.

Class sizes are small, so you can get to know

your VHS teacher and your online classmates.

Both your VHS teacher and the VHS site

coordinator at your school are qualified and spe-

cially trained to provide the support you need to

stay on track and succeed in your online courses.

4I liked both the freedom of scheduling

your own work times, similar to a

college course, and the interactivity of

the discussion boards, where I was able

to communicate with my peers.
