Evaluation
Overall, this seems to be a great resource for an Advanced Placement English Literature and Composition. The program would cover a wide variety of skills needed from these students to perform at their best for their Advanced Placement Test at the end of the year. It provides great resources for videos, readings, and writing activities. This would be an excellent resource for students and teachers to help them achieve their goals of learning at a higher level. It allows the teachers to give students specific lessons that will help them achieve mastery.

| This online program covers everything that would be required in a traditional AP English Literature and Composition. It covers Argumentative Writing, how to write Thesis Statements, how to write Body Paragraphs, and on and on. It allows the students to interact with the coursework and then they are tested on the material. It seemed to thoroughly cover all the aspects of the course work. | ||||||

| Instructional Support | This material goes beyond the content outlined in "Adequate" by providing problem or project-based content with integrated skills and concepts from various disciplines to help students make sense of the material.

| As far as online programs go, I feel like this is excellently organized and would be easy for a high school student to navigate. It is organized quite a bit like the Learning Management System, Canvas, which many students are using at the collegiate level. It allows the students to see the pace that they need to achieve in order to finish on time, as well as shows them the entire course work so they know what they are covering and how long it should take them to achieve mastery. | ||||||
