A Unique Approach to Learning
uCurriculum is rooted in the principles of self-directed learning, a unique and cutting-edge approach to education.
What is Self-Directed Learning?
We See You
uCurriculum seeks to support YOU – your unique drives, passions, and interests. Unlike many one-size-fits-all online courses, YOU determine what you want to get out of the course, and YOU choose what you want to put into it.
It’s kind of like a buffet for the mind.
We’ve prepared a bunch of tasty dishes, but each learner decides what to put on their plate. Through it all, we’ll be available to guide, facilitate and provide thoughtful feedback.
uCurriculum Subject Areas
Language Arts

How uCurriculum Works:
Independent Study
You get full access to the course but aren’t required to upload any work to the instructor. The amount and type of feedback is up to YOU!
Partnership
You get full access to the course and YOU decide which activities to upload to the instructor. Online discussions with peers and/or the instructor are options. The amount and type of feedback is up to YOU!
Formal
If you want a grade and certificate of completion, this option is for YOU. While there are still many choices, some assignments are required and must be uploaded to the instructor.
FAQs
Will my child receive a grade?
If your child is enrolled in the Formal course option, he or she will receive a grade and a certificate of completion. Students enrolled in the “Partnership” or “Independent” course options will receive individualized feedback from the facilitator in the form of comments and questions.
What happens once I enroll in the course?
You will receive an introductory email that explains the components of the class, any materials needed, and when and how to log in.
Will I be able to track my child's progress?
Yes. Parents will receive a written description of the course’s learning objectives and a summary of their child’s contributions to the class.
Is there a guarantee
Yes. If you or your child feels like you did not get the value you expected from the course, we will refund you 100%.
