How Can CatechismClass.com Be Right for Your Family?
How Can CatechismClass.com Be Right for Your Parish?
- Supplemental Program
- Great for students with special needs (i.e., disabled children and children with learning disabilities) who are unable to attend weekly classes or those with scheduling conflicts. Our courses are available anytime of the day.
- Allows students to catch up for previous years of missed religious education.
- Students can work on the materials as a supplement to enhance what they are learning through a traditional textbook. Parishes often comment on the exceptional quality of our programs.
- Primary Religious Education Program
- Use our courses as your primary religious education materials and no longer buy expensive text books that students easily lose. Children complete their work online at home. Parishes may use the materials in a classroom setting or in a virtual classroom.
- Students may complete their quizzes at home with their parents, encouraging family faith formation.
- Teachers, Directors of Religious Education, and Priests have the ability to teach in the classroom using the online text and can set meeting times at the interval that works best for the parish, if you wish to still meet in person at a certain cadence. Or, use our programs in any virtual meetings and display our course on the screen. Students can then be asked to continue reading the materials after class and submit their chapter ending quizzes.
- Accountabilty & Integrity In Both Options
- One of the founding hallmarks of our program as built by Fr. James Zatalava is that there is accountability built into all of our lessons. As your students take lessons, you will receive instantaneous quiz reports of their progress. You will see the questions, how well they did, the amount of time they spent on a lesson, and have the ability to issue retakes for quizzes that need them. In addition to these instant quizzes, you may at any time log in to run a roster report to see how your students are doing, their cumulative scores, the average time spent on lessons, etc to ensure that they are learning the materials.
- Online education does not mean less of a quality religious education. Our lessons are some of the most complete and through ones ever produced. Our accountability features will empower you to ensure that your students are truly spend quality time on each and every lesson.
- Prefer to not receive these test reports? That is fine. You can easily turn off this feature and use our programs as a home study program too.
