Learn at Your Own Pace
Acellus delivers its courses through an intuitive student interface. Within each course, students are provided with “lessons” designed to deliver all of the resources to teach, convey, reinforce, and help the student learn and master a concept.
Each lesson begins with a video lecture in which a teacher presents a single, specific concept or a few concepts that are tightly intertwined. Acellus’ high-resolution videos give students the information and instruction they need to master the course material, creating the feeling of a one-on-one learning experience.
Student Dashboard
Each student is provided with a username and password. From the dashboard, the student may select a class to work in. Once the student selects a class, they are immediately taken to their current position within the course. Here’s a great video on the student experience at Acellus
Video-based Lessons
The short video lessons that begin the class are taught by teachers who are experts in their field. This video-based instruction allows students to learn independently, which can greatly leverage the time of a parent. [Link to videos below]
Practice Problems
Immediately after the video lesson, students receive practice problems where they apply the concept presented in the lesson. Acellus requires students to master the concept before moving to the next lesson.
