HOME Sci
High-school science at home with structure, guidance, accountability, and community... HOMESci – Hybrid Online Motivating Education inspiring learning and autonomy through understanding science.

Purpose:
Welcome to HOMESci for Biology, where your student can study science at home with structure, guidance, accountability, and community. This is a hybrid learning experience where your student, not you, takes the lead to complete work at home and then submits online and on time. You provide the home and book (then concentrate on teaching other subjects and/or other students).
If you want your student to learn biology at home, remain accountable, stick to a schedule, share some of their work, and get one-on-one feedback, then HOMESci is for you.
What We Offer:
Structure:
- Classwork 3 Days a week – Monday, Wednesday, Friday
- Modules at a Glance
- Weekly quizzes
- Timeline per Semester
Guidance:
- Virtual Zoom Class with opportunities for questions

Overview:
Basic Plan: Student works at home, follows planned schedule, and communicates via email and text. 16 Modules, approximately 2wk per module. Student reads chapter; participates in online class; listens to pre-recorded lectures; completes chapter reviews, experiment designs, quizzes and tests and submits them for grading. Feedback and a showcase of student work will be provided.
