Thoughts on Learning Online Just a few short years ago online schools were ridiculed as simple degree mills. It was relativley easy make an account and "purchase" a degree from one of the many unaccredited online schools around the country. Recently we have seen a change as online schools have become a valuable resource for students around the country. Please check out this blog http://letsconsider.edublogs.org/2009/09/24/what-is-the-future-of-education/ for more information on online education.

Its Potential Online Learning has the potential to reach a wide number of students, especially those who do not have access to proper school supplies and who enjoy learning at their own pace. It provides a space for numerous usages. As the trend for technological use increases, blending it into the school system can serve a positive purpose. Indeed, it can be used as supplement tools for teachers as well as a ways to communicate, organize, and share information.

Its Future Currently online learning has been developed in roughly 250 schools across the country. As of yet, many skeptics of the system remain, but as long as quality schools keep producing exceptional results I am confident that the online learning community will continue to grow.
