Guest Commentary: Developing a Public Agenda for Virtual Learning

Bill Tucker of Education Sector posted an analysis, complete with videos, on “Developing a Public Agenda for Virtual Learning.” This is the kind of reasoned discussion that deserves to be widely read.

Tucker notes that “virtual learning continues to experience explosive growth. It holds the potential to help address many of our nation's most pressing educational issues.”

He adds, that with all of this growth, “there are troubling signs that virtual learning may not transform American education, but instead replicate many of its worst features … The question is not whether virtual learning will grow, but how?”

Check out his commentary and watch one of the videos that go with the article.
