Grading System/Minimum Grade Requirement: Below is an explanation of how Shavon School of Real Estate’s Learning Management System works and how it monitors your progress. There is no “make-up” work policy because all course work must be completed before taking the final exam. For real estate prelicense there is a final exam requirement after all lessons are completed. You must pass the exam with a 72% in order to receive credit for the course. If you do not pass the final exam, you will be allowed an EXAM RETAKE. If you do not pass the RETAKE EXAM, you will not receive credit for the course. However, you will have the opportunity to purchase a RETAKE OF THE COURSE. If you do purchase a retake, you will be required to start the course over and progress through each lesson again before you are allowed to take the final exam. Shavon School of Real Estate will maintain your school records including your exam scores for five years at the minimum.

How Our Course Monitors and Evaluates Your Progress and Provides Feedback: The courses utilize the personal computer to perform the functions traditionally performed by the teacher. Using our courseware, the computer becomes essentially a one-on-one tutor. It presents the material to be learned, provides adequate explanation to ensure that you understand what is being presented, and requires that you demonstrate your understanding through active participation in the learning process. More importantly, it acts as a constant monitor of what you know and don't know and uses that information to dynamically adjust the presentation to meet your needs as you learn. The result of this process is that the courseware provides a fully self-contained instructional program that can adjust to your specific needs which may vary widely both in the amount of knowledge you bring into the learning session as well as your learning ability (i.e., how quickly you learn. In addition, no other resources (such as books or teachers) are normally needed to accomplish the educational objectives of a particular course.
How to best take an online course
Spending too much time in any one session will burn you out. Remember, our program actually challenges you to LEARN the material not just skim over text. So, we recommend you split up your effort into 30-40 minute sessions. You can do more than one session per day (recommended) but, try to do something everyday. The consistency of effort (particularly for any prelicense courses) is what will produce the best learning for you. As you work on the course, your time in each lesson is recorded as well as how many questions are presented and how many attempts were required to answer the question correctly. So, the learning system serves as a record of attendance and academic achievement.
