Online Learning Report - Keeping Pace
Last month John Watson, Butch Gemin and Jennifer Ryan from Evergreen Consulting Associates released an interesting report titled Keeping Pace with K-12 Online Learning 2008. The report takes a look at K-12 online programs in the United States. Here's some highlights:
- State-led programs and initiatives continue to be an important online learning option for students in many states.
- As of fall 2008, 34 states offer state-led programs or initiatives that are designed, in most cases, to work with existing school districts to supplement course offerings for students.
- Full-time online schools are a second common online learning option:
- As of fall 2008 there are 21 states that have these types of schools.
- They are often charter schools, although there are also some non-charter, district-run programs that are available to students across the state.
- High school level, with some middle school,
- Supplemental—providing one or more courses to students enrolled elsewhere, and
- Funded primarily by separate state appropriations rather than the per-pupil funding formula.
- The Florida Virtual School
- The Illinois Virtual High School
- The Michigan Virtual School
- The Idaho Digital Learning Academy
- The Georgia Virtual School
- The Kentucky Virtual Schools, and
- The Missouri Virtual Instruction Program.
- The Washington Digital Learning Commons
- The Wyoming Switchboard Network
- The Texas Virtual School Network, and
- The Oregon Virtual School District.
