Teachers reach far-flung students via Net - David Josar, Stars and Stripes European edition
Patch High School teacher Jim Heffernan, a 26-year Department of Defense Dependents Schools veteran, isn’t sure what most of his students look like. One student is in Bahrain, another is in Ansbach, Germany, and a few more are in England. He has two from Patch, but he nearly always meets them online when they take his distance learning Advanced Placement American history class. Heffernan is one of a growing number of DODDS teachers who teach distance learning classes. Classes are taught via the Internet with online lectures, assignments, quizzes and tests. There is a chat program to facilitate discussions.
