Follow on Google News | Are Georgia’s Joshua's Law Online Courses Preparing Teens for the Realities of the Road?New Instructor Led Virtual Driver’s Ed Course Combats Distraction, Boosts Retention, and Better Prepares Young Drivers
By: Gil Bryan “Very few 16 year olds have the discipline to avoid distractions in their home environment and focus solely on the curriculum in the absence of an instructor and other students, so engagement in the online learning process is extremely important, especially when we’re preparing new drivers for Georgia’s roads,” said Gil Bryan, founder and owner of Instructor Led Driver’s Ed. “Our instructor-led classes combine the interactivity of traditional classrooms with the flexibility and convenience of online formats to help students fully grasp the curriculum and retain the information." Instructor Led Driver’s Ed’s robust online platform, and classes facilitated by a state licensed instructor is a unique addition to Georgia’s roster of virtual driver’s education courses. The company’s format is ideal for teens that require social interaction, outside encouragement and motivation, and a supervised classroom setting. Additionally, according to Bryan, these factors increase the probability that students will recall information learned from the courses long after taking required driving tests. Unlike other online driver’s education courses, students in Instructor Led Drivers’ Ed classes can interact with the instructor and other students, and ask questions and receive answers in real time. Instructors use videos, animated presentations, quizzes, interactive polls and student breakout sessions to keep students engaged and focused on the curriculum. Classes are structured to combat distractions in the home environment, boost retention and learning, and effectively prepare young drivers for both licensing tests and tests and challenges on the road. “Not all online driver’s education courses are created equal, and not all teens learn the same way,” said Bryan. “When registering your teen for an online driver’s education course, make sure the class is designed for optimum engagement and offers a format that’s conducive to your child’s learning style. Your child’s safety and the safety of other drivers they will share the road with depend on it.” Instructor Led Drivers’ Ed is approved by the Georgia Department of Driver Services.
