Distance Education is very interesting to think about. I was surprised by some things of the websites. Some sites were seat up very well for information. In some ways, it’s like kids are able to have a second chance of getting their education.

               After watching the video intro to distance learning from Edutopia, it made more sense. Honestly, I didn’t know they had distance learning for k-12 students. A high school student is about to drop out because he is so behind. With the distance learning they have a second chance. That really surprised me that they offer something like this, epically in Indiana.

               I found it interesting that Florida had Mobil learning. You are able to pick a topic and get to work on Algebra. Technology has become a big part of our student lives of education. I found that Florida’s website wasn’t very well put together. The other two gave you a lot of information about distance learning.

               Something I read off of Indiana’s distance learning was brought up: what about our special needs students? In a lot of ways, they need that one on one with their teacher. Yes, I do feel some are high functioning enough they could do it. What about some that need to be taught about life skills. I can see good and bad for distance learning.
