12) Who gives the assignments for the class?
HomeLink Advisors have arranged a full academic year’s worth of assignments for each course. This weekly assignment sheet is available to only students registered in the program, and they are available only on a a week-to-week basis. (While these weekly assignment sheets make wonderful course outlines for all homeschoolers, only those who are actually registered with the HomeLink Program have access to them.)
Also, weekly assignments can be given by phone to the parent, and, in some cases, sent electronically to the parents or student. Parents are still in charge of these assignments and have the freedom to either enrich or shorten these assignments as the situation warrants. In some cases, the parent and the Advisor can decide on appropriate accommodations for each student’s learning needs.
