The access site has innumerable advantages. One being that it gives small schools with small budgets access to curriculum that they would not otherwise be able to offer their students. For example, Verbana High School in Chilton County can now offer Algebra II, Algebra IB, English II, environmental science and career/tech coordinated studies via online learning through access. Without these online certified teachers Varbana could not afford to offer these courses.
Also through access you have a direct link to the Alabama Virtual Library. This site offers even more information, resources and support to teachers, parents and students. Just under the Elementary sub-site alone, there was everything from Britannica Online to LitFinder which helps find specific literature, from poems to plays.
One thing I wasn't sure of is how you go about getting a user name and password. Since I wasn't sure whether there was a fee, I'll just wait to ask Dr. Strange before I go any further. But this is a great site!!
