Virtual Education

I thought the reading and video's about virtual education was very interesting. I never thought about online classes k-12 students could take. I always thought it was for college students, however there are programs for k-12. I always had opportunity's to take AP classes in high school, so I never thought about taking it online. However, if I didn't have those opportunity's I would take the class online and the virtual education allows for that. Also, virtual education helps those who works full time and can't attend class. It allows for them to do the work on their own time which is nice. Another thing I like about having a virtual education for k-12 students is if a student is unable to go to school because of an illness, they can do virtual education and not fall behind. Also, I think it would benefit gifted and talented students to offer more of a challenge if they don't have it at their school.
