Ben Pollard, a State College Area High School freshman, was working on a quiz after school recently -- but in this case, he was typing in the questions, not just the answers. "It's fun to learn how these things work," said Pollard, one of the members of a State High student club who are getting first-hand experience in providing education via the Internet. In the process, the students are giving the school district a chance to offer classes online. English 12 is the first class that the club -- Technologically Experienced and Creative Students, or TECS -- is working on. It could be available on the Web this coming school year, and more classes might be available to students at State High and other schools for a fee in the future.
