Edgenuity Announces New California Course Approvals
Scottsdale, AZ (PRWEB) September 09, 2014 -- Edgenuity, a leading provider of online and blended learning solutions, today announced that 34 of its courses have been reviewed by the University of California Office of the President (UCOP) and found to meet its a-g subject area requirements through the 2015-2016 school year. Most recently, Edgenuity’s Expository Reading and Writing course and Advanced Placement® (AP®) World History course have received a-g approval.
“Edgenuity is proud to uphold the high academic standards outlined by the University of California across such a broad range of our approved online and blended learning courses,” said Sari Factor, CEO of Edgenuity. “From advanced placement courses to lab sciences, we are committed to providing an engaging, content-rich curriculum designed to prepare students to succeed in college and career.”
Edgenuity’s suite of courses that now have a-g approval include:
• Biology and Chemistry with labs. Edgenuity is one of a small number of online learning providers with approved lab sciences.
• Seven AP courses to provide online options for advanced learners.
• Both traditional and integrated Common Core mathematics pathways, providing flexibility for districts, including Algebra I, Algebra II, Geometry, Math I, Math II, and Math III.
• A rich assortment of electives, including Psychology, Economics, Sociology, and Geography.
• Seven world language courses.
The a-g requirement serves students by ensuring they are taking a wide variety of classes in high school that will prepare them for their first year of college. In order for courses to be submitted for a-g review they need to first receive California Learning Resource Network (CLRN) certification.
