State considers change to distance learning - KRISTI ALBERTSON, The Daily Inter Lake
Education panel will vote Friday on plan to amend accreditation standards. Students taking online, video or correspondence courses from out-of-state instructors soon may have limited distance-learning options, pending the outcome of a Montana Board of Public Education vote Friday. At its next meeting, held in Great Falls today and Friday, the board will vote on several amendments to distance-learning accreditation standards in elementary and secondary schools. Whatever the outcome, the vote will have the force of law, because the Board of Public Education controls accreditation standards. One of the most significant proposed changes would require those who teach online, distance or technology-delivered classes to be licensed and endorsed by the state in their areas of instruction.
