Parent's Role
Students and parents participating in the ORU eAcademy will be supported by a three-tiered support system, including University professional education faculty, degreed/certified teachers and administrators, and teacher candidates (future teachers). The parent, however, holds the primary responsibility for making sure the student is prepared to learn. Once enrolled, parents have agreed to partner with ORU eAcademy educators to accomplish the task of educating their student. This is a very powerful partnership. Daily parental involvement is essential to ensure student success.
Parents are expected to provide all of the necessary materials to ensure a successful educational experience for the student. Additionally, parents should consistently monitor student progress and stay informed through contact with ORU eAcademy educators. As a parent, you will fulfill the following important roles:
Coordinator: Parents take responsibility for ensuring that the student routinely links up with ORU eAcademy servers.
Academic Supporter: Parents will need to help the student stay on task, study, and review for quizzes and tests to ensure success. When you receive graded work back from ORU eAcademy, it is important to use this feedback to guide the student accordingly.
Communicator: Parents must keep the lines of communication open to ensure success. ORU eAcademy commits to be available and responsive to the academic needs of each student.
