The Learning Springs offers over 100 online courses covering core subjects and many electives. Each one-year course contains 36 lessons, with a four to five-hour workload per lesson (totaling approximately 144 class hours). A semester course contains eighteen four to five-hour lessons.

Our courses contain complete lesson plans, answer keys, assessments and a teacher response component for each question. Each lesson represents one week in the traditional school calendar, and includes a built in test or quiz.

Aurora courses are well directed for self pacing and independent study. Lessons are 'reseach based', encouraging students to find the information, not just read posted material. Our courses inspire students to become Critical Thinkers who view all sides of an issue and can arrive at thoughtful conclusions.
