Mission & VisionAt Eons Learning, we believe that there is a world of amazing and useful technologies at our disposal and that we should incorporate that technology into the way we educate. We also understand that there are certain aspects of traditional education that just work as they are. It is our goal to mesh the best of modern technology with hands-on, at-home learning. Through online and distance education, we hope that more people around the world will have better access to better education.

Course StructureUnlike other online education resources, we are structured around a predefined state curriculum*. Our site is built in a way that can replace, rather than supplement, a classroom experience—but how you choose to make the best use of our resources is up to you. We've broken our curriculum into 6 units, 40 lessons, and several sub-lessons within those lessons. These sub-lessons are designed to take approximately 45 minutes - 1 hour each, every day, depending on the students own learning pace.
*Our course meets and exceeds the requirements of the Utah State curriculum for 7th grade science. We hope to extend to other curricula in the future. |
Expanding Our Learning ExperienceWe hope to be able to offer an additional year of educational content, expanding on what was taught in this course. We ultimately hope to grow even further. We are also working to create new learning resources and expand the types of resources that are available to students.
We recognize many students prefer to purchase and work out of a physical textbook. We plan on offering a hard copy of our curriculum for purchase by the end of 2020. If you are interested in helping us reach our vision, please consider a donation or feel free to drop us a line if you would like to extend your support in other ways. |
