cyberschool

/sˈaɪbɚskˌul/ noun B2 ✓

A school offering courses over the Internet rather than in its own physical premises.

Word Origin Cyber- comes from Greek kybernan 'to steer' — the same root that gave us cybernetics, the science of steering systems. School, surprisingly, goes back to Greek skholē 'leisure,' because ancient Greeks thought learning required free time. So a cyberschool is literally a 'steered leisure' — a school navigated through digital space. Related words: cyberspace, cyberpunk, scholar (from the same leisure root).
