Giant Campus is the nation’s leading provider of technology courses for online school students such as K12, Insight and Kaplan. Since our start in 1997 as a summer technology camp, our instructional methodology has been informed by the hundreds of thousands of hours we’ve spent teaching technology skills to middle and high school students. Today, our latest generation of online, for-credit courses combines the best aspects of live instruction with the interactivity and immediacy of the Web. Based on the simple belief that human brains learn more when they’re having fun™, our project-based curriculum aspires to be both engaging and academically rigorous.
Guided by our robust curriculum development model, each course features a series of increasingly complex hands-on projects. In each project, fundamental concepts are woven into labs and assignments so that students make key connections as they progress through the course. Frequent practice exercises and quizzes help reinforce newly established skills, while end-of-project assignments provide powerful opportunities for students to apply what they have learned in new contexts. Each course is supported by a comprehensive set of instructor materials, including project grading rubrics, answer keys and course guides.
