must complete a minimum number of study hours per year; however, they may make up these
hours by studying at home at times that suit their family schedule. They can log on early or late
in the day and even join live classes in other countries. In order to ensure that each student is
learning adequately, computer software will automatically monitor the number of hours a week
each student studies online as well as that students' learning materials and assessment activities.
Reports will be available for parents and teachers. The software can then identify the best
learning activities and condition for each individual student and generate similar activities. It
can also identify areas of weak achievement and produce special programs adjusted to the
