2013 Summer Arts Camp

eLearning allows the student to enroll in a course and earn credits without having to attend a TVDSB location. All course work is completed online. A reliable computer with internet connection is required. Students can work from a location of their choice (home, work, public library, friend's house, hotel, etc.). Students are expected to be online, completing course work, daily and will spend between 5-8 hours per day working on their online course. However, this time is flexible and can be completed at any time during the day. In addition, it does not have to be continuous. Many students will complete a few hours work in the morning and the rest of their work in the late evening. This leaves the bulk of the day for other activities, such as summer employment.
