Hardware Requirements

 


It is our goal to make online learning accessible to all interested teachers. Based on the latest research, the average teacher has a little slower and older equipment at home than at school. In creating our online course, we kept that in mind and tried to keep ease of use and simplicity as our focus. Every feature of our program, from discussion forums to classroom meetings can be accessed by a Web browser from Patti's online classroom.
