Virtual Summer School
Want to further your education remotely this summer while still being connected to classmates and a classroom experience? This summer, McCanny 2023 Summer School is offering Virtual Summer School classes with McCanny School Moodle account that mirror our regular in-class experience. What does that mean for students? They can now participate in daily virtual classes from home, the cottage, or anywhere there is Wi-Fi, at regularly scheduled times Monday to Friday. The classes, although virtual, allow students to visually and verbally partake in lessons led by a teacher, as well as contribute to class discussions and collaborate with peers in breakout groups online.
Similar to our academically rigorous in-class lessons, our virtual classes are structured with set start and end times, and deadlines are established for assignments, tests, and final exams. Classes are live and conducted through Zoom video chat using a shared screen. Our teachers plan and execute lessons using PowerPoint, videos and white boards in real-time, allowing for students to have their questions answered directly. Extra one-on-one support from teachers is available during virtual office hours, as well as through email and recorded tutorials. All classes are recorded and made available within our online portal, giving students the ability to reference lessons when preparing for assignments and assessments.
This year, enjoy your summer and earn a credit without the added commute. You can now log in McCanny School Moodle account to our virtual classroom to stay connected to peers and teachers wherever you may be. For more information, please call 416-491-5555. Click here to enroll in Summer School.
Student Engagement
We bring the curriculum to life with virtual field trips and designated time for socializing activities. Our “cameras on” policy for our virtual classrooms further maximizes student engagement and participation. Breakout rooms are commonly leveraged as a tool in our classes and help students discuss concepts in small groups which is vital to learning.
