Just because it was online does not mean the modules where privately operated or consisted of quality material. Our school system uses VLA, Virtual Learning Academy, and it is he same deal. It is public school online. Answer questions and retry when failure occurs. There is no live help. This is done as a way to boost our graduation rate. The school system knows the kids are going to pass, and even encourages the teachers to pass the students regardless of work quality, so that we keep the money flowing in. When we have seniors we know are going to fail, we set them up on VLA and the teachers are instructed to generously interpret the answers. I don't think Khan is the same thing that you experienced.

Well, that sounds like his predicament. He should have graduated, but didn't and had to do summer school. When I looked at his computer and the progress chart, I saw that he was over a year behind in a couple of his classes, and a several quarters behind in others. I don't know if he ever graduated.
