Course description
A course description is a short paragraph explaining what a high school course covered, the materials used, the work required and how the grade was decided.
Colleges and programs sometimes ask homeschooled applicants for course descriptions alongside the transcript. They help a reader understand courses with unfamiliar names or materials.
For the record you keep
Write a draft when the course starts and adjust it when it ends.
One record for any method
Lessons, the learning log and work samples all count toward attendance, hours and the year-end packet.
