Typical Day at WiloStar3D
Students enrolled with WiloStar3D Interactive Academy are expected to have adequate computer expertise, be very self-motivated, and have a love of technology. Students are expected to stay current with all class assignments and to participate on a regular basis in our 3D virtual learning community called EduKaydia. Many times instruction involves collaborative projects and it is the responsibility of each student to work as a team member for the benefit of all participants.
Sample WiloStar3D Interactive Academy routine at the middle school level:
After enrollment, students will receive a temporary password to access the new student orientation area at our Web site. There, they can download a detailed description of school expectations, procedures and rules as well as all school software.
The most effective part of our curriculum is the one-to-one interaction that occurs inside our 3D campus. Students are encouraged to ask as many questions about procedures as they need during the first few weeks and they fast learn that it is a REQUIREMENT to interact on a regular basis throughout the school day.
In this example of a daily routine we will show how a WiloStar3D Interactive Academy student goes about their school day.
8:00 a.m. Daniel enters the WiloStar3D campus and "walks" over to the main school building. He enters and walks toward the study hall and library. He notices he has a telegram. It is from his teacher telling him to check his daily feedback sheet in the WiloStar3D course area. Daniel takes his seat in study hall and then clicks on a 3D book to launch his personal daily feedback sheet. This Web page has comments on his progress as well as suggestions and grades for completed assignments. His instructor has sent back revisions to his historical fiction piece he was working on for his genre study. Daniel's story involved Colonial America ...something he was also studying in social studies. Daniel reads the revisions and comments from his instructor and notes any missing assignments he needs to do today.
8:20..Daniel decides to read and print out the daily assignment sheet. He makes sure he checks the 3D virtual class conference schedule as this can sometimes involve 3d building projects and presentations and we wants to be prepared!
8:30-11:00 Daniel gets started on the daily assignments.He decides he had better read the next twenty pages of The Cay a novel he is reading to compliment his middle school oceanography module. Today's conference deals with literature so Daniel wants to be prepared. He noticed there are a lot of web links with today's assignment sheet so he makes a mental note to try to split up his time wisely.
11:15-12:00 Online class meeting inside the 3D virtual classroom.
12:00 : Lunch and time for a break!
1:00-2:00 Next stop is science. Daniel follows the web links and researches information for his 3D ocean zones display. He makes a mental note to be sure to work in enough time to work on its construction. The 3D virtual sealab projects is really taking shape!
2:00-3:00 Math: Daniel brings up Aleks.com and logs on to start his math fo the day.
Last stop is to upload the day's work!
