Online Learning Options Help Fuel Rise in Homeschooling: A Growing Option in American Education- Dan Lips and Evan Feinberg, Heritage Foundation
Twenty-five years ago, a family that wanted to homeschool would likely have had limited curriculum and instructional options. Today, the options are nearly boundless.

Parents can find and purchase curriculum materials through online exchanges and other networks.[22] Hundreds of Web sites, blogs, and books are devoted to supporting parents who homeschool. In some cases, parents can access free or low-cost instructional products to teach their children.
