Providing Core Courses Online in the Small Rural High School: Collaborative Roles and Responsibilities [Asynchronous]

How can small rural high schools counteract deterrents to achievement facing students in today’s economic crisis? With increasing staffing cuts it is time to embrace alternative educational formats, particularly in the distance learning and online arena. Core subject area courses are readily available for high school students online. Content of these courses follow designated curriculum guidelines designed by teachers within their professional disciplines. UNC systems and community colleges are eager to offer credit for courses successfully pursued online. School librarians and school counselors have a pivotal role to play in redesigning access to and delivery of education to the high school student through an online approach. Thus, this presentation will present practical suggestions for school counselors and school librarians for collaborative facilitation and delivery of online courses in the high school setting. These suggestions will be linked to the critical process of career planning for high school students.
