These schools make use of digital tools and software that allows teachers and students to connect remotely, continuing the classroom experience in a virtual space. Using recorded lectures, discussion forums, and other tech solutions, students can avail of education at their own comfort and convenience. <\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-7627\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dubaimagazine.net\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Cody_High-res-002-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/>The popularity of online schools is certainly growing rapidly. iCademy Middle East is one such online school in Dubai, which has witnessed a spike in enrolments. The school has witnessed a five-fold increase in enrolments in the past few months.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;\">iCademy ME, the only KHDA-registered online school in the emirate has been operating in the region since 2008 and offers high school diplomas through the American curriculum. They currently have over 700 students. <\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;\">\u201cWhat\u2019s different about us is we\u2019re operating from a standard curriculum that\u2019s geared towards an online setting. We\u2019re not trying to cobble together a variety of sources to make an educational experience, it\u2019s all in one place,\u201d said Cody Claver, General Manager of iCademy Middle East.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;\">There are many advantages of an online school, from added ease and flexibility to greater engagement with teachers. With online school, you can study from anywhere, as long as you have internet access. You no longer have to factor in commuting to campus and the associated costs. <\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;\">That\u2019s not all, Studying online means access to a whole range of digital tools like video calls, animations, storyboarding, and social media\u2014as well as games. Teachers are able to be more creative in their lessons and the result is a more compelling learning experience for students. Most importantly, online education is far more cost-effective than traditional schools.<\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;\">Academic year fees at iCademy Middle East range from AED11,999 for KG through to year 8 students and AED14,999 for high school. <\/span><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;\">iCademy Middle East is like any other school just without the trappings of the brick and mortar space. The school is NEASC accredited. They have fully certified teachers assigned to every student. The curriculum is aligned to US state standards and US Common Core State Standards. iCademy Middle East is licensed by the KHDA which includes teaching the Arabic language to both native and non-native speakers, Islamic Studies, UAE Social Studies, and Moral Education. iCademy also provides full counseling services to students.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Times have dictated the rapid expansion of online schools.
