Virtual and Blended Programs. Digital and self-directed learning is a growing component of education in the 21st Century. University classrooms use digital and distance learning technologies as a core part of instruction. Corporate training uses online learning management platforms, often in a self-directed environment. WPCS’s goal is not only to educate students on what they need to know, but to teach them how to learn, giving them the skills and tools to teach themselves new topics. This new generation of digital learners use technology every day, and WPCS will integrate a digital learning management system into its program. WPCS knows that sound training to become a responsible digital citizen is a core 21st Century skill. Students will learn to use digital tools to access curriculum and demonstrate proficiency. Teachers will still teach, but they will become facilitators to learning, and not the sole fount of all knowledge in the classroom. In this way, teachers will spend more time as mentors, guiding project-based learning and working with students to demonstrate what they’ve learned.

Virtual and Blended Programs. Rationale

Virtual and Blended Programs. Every Cardinal Academy student will be provided a laptop computer to use at school and at home. Our ultimate goal is to have students present on our campus in order to utilize all of the services available, but when students are unable to attend school due to pregnancy complications, maternity leave, and family illness, students will already be equipped to continue their studies at home. By expanding access, we can ensure pregnant and parenting students are receiving the education for which they are entitled. Cardinal Academy will utilize an online educational platform for credit recovery and to supplement with courses we cannot offer onsite. Further, by having an online platform established, we will be better prepared in the event of another pandemic. Other services can be offered virtually, as well. The fields of telehealth and telemental health have expanded this year in new and exciting ways. Counseling and social work services can be delivered safely and securely in accordance with HIPAA and state/national ethical guidelines. Additionally, the student store, The Salvation Army food pantry, and WIC clinic, can be accessed with appointments, social distancing and wearing masks. References American Civil Liberties Union.
