ACCESS

ACCESS is an Alabama based program which has been put into affect to help further educate students beyond the classroom. It offers classes that they may not otherwise be able to take such as advanced placement courses and college credit courses done on a computer based system. The students use multimedia learning systems and video conferencing for these particular classes. Students can also take courses to get back on track if they are behind on their scheduled courses for graduation. They even have programs to help students prepare for graduation tests.
I think ACCESS is a great opportunity for Alabama public schools. It allows students to gain access to classes in which they might not have been able to take in order to further their education and prepare them for college. I think the program is truly, in genius and will help out our local students when taking the next step in their education. I also like the fact that you can help those students who are behind catch up and try and graduate on time, which may not have been possible in the past without the web based courses. I believe this a great tool for future college students, since so much education on now computer based. It will help prepare them for the next step in their lives.
