New Report Urges Online Learning Expansion in Texas


This article is from Texas Insider 
The Texas Public Policy Foundation would like to see Texas follow Florida’s lead in increasing access to virtual schools.
A report from the Texas Public Policy Foundation suggests that virtual education and blended learning both present the opportunity for cost savings and academic gain in Texas.
“At the K-12 level, the potential of virtual education is enormous,” said the report’s author, James Golsan. “Through the use of technology, students in rural districts would have access to the same educational resources as students in more populated areas. Familiarization with technology could prepare students for the work force more quickly.”
