OnlineG3
Online G3 appeals to gifted students with their accelerated teaching style covering literature, grammar, history, computer science and writing. This humanities online teaching forum uses live webinars to teach short classes to highly-gifted learners. Then students have an assignment list to further their knowledge on the topic. The learning is fast-paced The founder had been teaching since 1997, and as a parent of a gifted child, created Online G3 as a platform to provide appropriate teachings for other gifted children. Students enroll in online courses, attend 50-min live webinar classes, and complete homework before the next week. This sort of teaching encourages students to work on their own, completing the assignments after the webinar, and tracking their progress. The assignments are not graded but encourage discussion and critical thinking, and students review their peers' work. This platform is targeted for gifted students that are up for faster-paced, challenging teaching. Spaces are limited so parents are encouraged to enroll early.
