Course Description

Semester 1 of 2 – Scientists make exciting observations and learn amazing facts about the world. Harnessing students’ natural curiosity and ability to observe, Science 6th Grade surveys a variety of scientific disciplines through interactive activities and media-rich content. Students begin to explore scientific processes by creating and testing hypotheses. They learn to design experiments and analyze the results. Students also examine the connections between science and technology. They begin their survey of sciences by looking at life science, in which they examine the basic building block of life, the cell, and how cells come together to make larger organisms. Students compare the structure and processes of different organisms and how those organisms interact in an ecosystem. They finish by looking at one organism, the human body. The next part of the course focuses on physical science. Students examine the structure of matter and the forces that cause its motion. They also explore the forms of energy and how energy changes from one form to the other. Finally, students explore Earth science, examining the structure of Earth and the processes that shape it. They study the processes that affect an area’s weather and climate, including the forces that are causing climate change. Students compare natural disasters, learn which disasters are most likely to affect their local area, and find out how to prepare for disaster emergencies. Finally, students explore Earth’s place in the universe alongside the other objects.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is EdisonLearnNow?

EdisonLearnNow (ELN) offers self-paced, high-quality online courses for students looking to supplement their education. Whether you’re taking a course for credit recovery, acceleration, or enrichment, our flexible options help meet your needs.

What is the pacing like?

All ELN courses are self-paced.

Students may take as long as needed to complete a course. If needed, we can align the course with a specific school schedule and adjust dates as the student progresses.

No prerequisites are required for any ELN course.

Yes! If you’d like a syllabus for a specific course, let us know, and we’ll be happy to provide it. 

How do I register for a course?

The process is simple:

  1. Purchase the course – Use this link to select and buy the course: https://edisonlearnow.com/collections/all
  2. Complete the student application – After checkout, follow the link provided to fill out the application.
  3. We enroll the student – Once we receive the application, we will complete the enrollment, and the student can start learning!
How is the course delivered? Is it taught live at scheduled times by an instructor, or is it a flexible, self-paced video course?

All courses are asynchronous, meaning students may work independently with all-inclusive, self-contained courses. Our curriculum includes multiple learning tools to engage every kind of learner, including videos, visuals, and plenty of practice – especially in math courses! Our goal is to provide learning opportunities that meet the needs of students in any situation, meaning flexibility is core to what we do.

If your student would like to meet live with their teacher, they can always request a Personalized Live Session (PLI). PLIs give the student a chance to ask specific questions in a one-on-one format. We also have office hours for each subject daily, where a student may jump into a Zoom room with one of our full-time teachers.

Can I take an ELN course while enrolled in my school district?

Yes! Coordinating with your district is helpful for us; however, it is not required. We recommend that you reach out to your district prior to enrollment.

Some school districts already use EdisonLearning courses. If you’re currently enrolled in a district that uses Edison courses, contact your school’s advisory team to complete enrollment.

Every school has different policies regarding transfer credits. We recommend speaking with your school counselor to confirm before enrolling. 

How much does an eCourse cost?

Pricing varies slightly by course. You can view course prices on our website here: edisonlearnow.com

At this time, we do not offer discounts or payment plans. We structure our courses as a one-time purchase that allows the student to work at their own pace, without ongoing fees or monthly charges.  

What if I need help in my eCourse?

Our support team is available to assist with any technical or enrollment-related issues. Contact the Student Success Coordinator Brynn Kelly at brynn.kelly@edisonvirtuallearning.com or our Helpdesk at online.support@edisonvirtuallearning.com.
