A method and system for online education that includes an educator provider system
and at least one student system connected via a network means so that at least
one lesson can be transmitted from the provider system to the student system. One
embodiment of the present invention uses an interactive lesson with at least one
audio file that controls the pace of the presentation of the lesson. The present
invention can further comprise a mechanism for generating a lesson completion record
after a student has completed the lesson. The lesson completion record is immediately
transmitted upon completion of the lesson to a student and/or an education authority
in order to certify that the student has completed the lesson and has spent the
requisite minimum time period on that lesson.
