E-Learning in the Age of Choice
Now that many students have the opportunity to take online courses, schools and districts are starting to offer more choices when it comes to providers and accessing virtual education. Some districts are adapting online courses so they can be accessed by smartphones. States are also making sure students have choices in how they use virtual education. Several states have passed recent legislation requiring that districts allow students to choose their own online learning providers, whether that means state-run online schools, virtual charters, or private providers. This webinar provides useful tips for school administrators and K-12 policymakers on how to navigate this choice-filled world of virtual options. Sign up to view this webinar at any time.
