Online learning - HOWARD HILL, Times and Democrat
The Wall Street Journal (May 15, 2006) published a prediction made by Edventures that by 2008, one in 10 students will be enrolled in an online degree program. In South Carolina, it is believed virtual (Internet) programs will be commonplace with high school students within this decade. Online learning is mushrooming throughout academic and other circles. This mushrooming effect with online degree programs could be for obvious reasons: They are basically of the same quality as traditional programs; they are highly interactive; they can be earned in less time and with less cost; and they are flexible learning venues suitable to enrollees desirous of convenient times to complete intensive course work.
