Indiana Online
Supported by Central Indiana Educational Service Center (CIESC), Indiana Online is one of the largest online supplemental high school course providers in the state. In partnership with over 300 high schools statewide, Indiana Online offers a wide variety of online high school courses throughout the year and over the summer — your time, your place. There are over 100 courses and enrollments have grown to over 26,000 including school year and summer with over a 90% pass rate.
All of Indiana Online’s courses are developed and taught by Indiana licensed teachers, each teaching within his or her content area of expertise. Each course is designed to meet the Indiana State Standards, accredited by Cognia, and approved by the NCAA. Our Advanced Placement courses have also been approved by the College Board.
Projects and Highlights:
- Professional Development – Highly trained Indiana Online staff provide online professional learning to local, state, and national audiences. Our goal is to help year-round and summer teachers become more effective online teachers with course offerings focused on accessibility, assessments, course technology, instructional materials, and learner interaction.
- Course Access – Indiana Online was selected as one of five online programs that will provide online courses as part of the Indiana Course Access Portal (iCAP). iCAP, a program offered through the Indiana Department of Education, is designed for school districts who need specific online courses for a variety of reasons focusing on World Language, CTE, and Advanced Placement. Beginning in Fall 2018, those districts were able to select from approved course providers, such as Indiana Online, to offer online courses in their schools. In order to be selected as a provider, Indiana Online submitted information pertaining to each course offered as well as detailed information on how teachers instruct and lead each course, validation of each course, and processes for enrolling and monitoring students.
- Dual Credit – Indiana Online has a unique partnership with Ivy Tech. We offer 16 online, dual credit courses taught by our teachers using Ivy Tech’s curriculum. We hope to expand these offerings.
- FlexED –Indiana Online launched a delivery model called FlexED that will provide high-quality online curriculum, as well as instructional support and program management at a reasonable cost to school districts. FlexED will allow districts to utilize their staff and permit students to flex in and out of a classroom, if needed, without losing time in their course or quality of their curriculum. FlexED offers school corporations a complete, standards-based, online high school curriculum, as well as a learning management system for use in a virtual or face-to-face environment with students. District teachers will serve as the online instructor for the chosen course(s). Indiana Online teachers will serve as the course liaison and mentor for district teachers. Courses are delivered online via our Canvas learning management system and are hosted by Indiana Online.
