The Necessity and Promise of Online Learning

I found this link while searching the internet. It is about the growth and effectiveness of online learning. The middle school that I work at has implemented for the first year a one to one laptop program.  It has gone very well, but there are multiple concerns that have come up throughout the year that we are addressing.   Both an educator of science and a mother to three children, I have experienced online learning in multiple facets.

Another link that may be interesting to you is PBS-Frontline.  Very informative for educators as well as parents.

Finally, Internet Safety Guidelines for Parents

Enjoy! I hope they are helpful in some way.
