Online Courses will Connect Vermont K-12 Learning Community
Vermont teachers will be offering online courses and connecting to students throughout the state and the world as part of the Vermont Virtual Learning Cooperative, an ARRA-funded initiative to bring a K-12 Virtual School to Vermont. The Vermont Department of Education requested proposals for the $400,000 Title IID grant program from entities within Vermont in the fall of 2009. The grant tasked an entity to lead, manage, and develop a system that provided online learning opportunities for all Vermont schools. “We are very pleased with this model and feel the cooperative model makes it very appealing for Vermont schools.” says Peter Drescher, Education Technology Coordinator overseeing the Title IID program.
