University of Montana hosts virtual high school, adjusts admissions process – The Montana Digital Academy
The academy will provide both remedial and advanced courses for any Montana high school student at no cost to the student or his or her hometown school district. All teachers and course developers will be licensed Montana educators.
Education students might be asked to help with the new Montana Digital Academy http://www.montanadigitalacademy.org/ after courses start this fall.
“One thing I’m very interested in is having graduate or undergraduate students fill the role of tutor in online courses,” academy director Bob Currie said.
Currie said the academy has no specific plans for tutors yet, but it will continue to work on the idea after courses start this fall.
The 2009 state legislature appropriated $2 million for the development of a statewide online school, which led to the creation of the Montana Digital Academy.
