The majority of courses offered are synchronous (live) broadcasts using Bridgit conferencing software. SMART interactive white tboards are utilized for displaying instructional materials and also allow communication between the host site and receiving schools. The DLC teacher is also connected to the students through audio channels, which allow students to ask questions at any time. Web cams can also be used, as well as document cameras for the display of student work, lab activities and other related activities.

Moodle software is also relied upon to host much of the course content and assignments. Moodle is an open source course management system that students can access at anytime from any Internet location. Students can use Moodle to view notes, assignments, grades and other instructional materials. The students are assigned individual accounts and parents can also access the grades for their son or daughter. Students can use Moodle to complete and submit their assignments to their instructor and communicate with the teacher via email, chat, forums or group discussions.

As course development continues, the DLC will be recording class lessons and making them available to students within their courses for use in review or for days in which they are absent. The recorded lessons are stored through Silverlight, a on-line video and audio storage site and links are available within Moodle course sites.
