My opinion on International Schooling

12.04.2021

For those unaware (basically nobody), International Schooling is the school that I'm currently enrolled in. I am in 8th grade and have less than 2 weeks remaining until the end of the year. It is a completely online school, meaning that you don't have to go anywhere to enroll or study. Everything can be done from your computer at home. I've already made a post where I compared online education to regular education, so we'll skip that topic for now.

Overall, I think that the lessons are informative and very easy to understand. I had some issues with some Science lessons and needed to watch a few videos to understand the topic better, but other than that, I like them. The thing where you have to finish a quiz/test once you start it is not a bad design decision. However, the LMS tends to lag out sometimes, prompting you to refresh it. At those times, I get locked out of the quiz/test after refreshing it, which is pretty inconvenient. It's not too big of an issue as your answers usually save and the teachers are very helpful, but something to keep in mind.

Personally, I feel like some projects are pretty difficult for how frequently you get them, but that's also not a problem as overdue assignments are not penalized. I also like how you can build your school schedule around the day, instead of having to build the day around the school schedule.

Overall, International Schooling is a great student experience. My classmates are incredibly nice and supportive people, and so are the teachers. I would recommend it to anyone who can do it. See you in the next post!
