Evaluating Online Learning: Challenges and Strategies for Success - Newly Released Report from U.S. Dept. of Education
This guide is designed as a resource for leaders and evaluators of K–12 online learning programs. In this guide, the term “online learning” is used to refer to a range of education programs and resources in the K–12 arena, including distance learning courses offered by universities, private providers, orteachers at other schools; stand-alone “virtual schools” that provide students with a full array of online courses and services; and educational Web sites that offer teachers, parents, and students a range of resources.1 The guide features seven evaluations that represent variety in both the type of program or resource being evaluated, and in the type of evaluation. These evaluations were selected because they offer useful lessons to others who are planning to evaluate an online learning program or resource.
