Choosing Online Learning 180 Days of Awesome

    • Education

Welcome to 180 Days of Awesome, a podcast series about school. About how it was. About how it is. About how it will be. And, most importantly, why it has to change.

Episode 001 jumps right into the shark-infested waters of online learning.

You've heard the rumors: They're just signing in and walking away to play video games. They're scamming the system to skate through school.

But, online learning is very different than the picture commonly presented in education conversation (one often painted by those who have never experienced it for themselves).

In this episode we explore the transition to online school through the eyes of an 8th grade student and her mother.

Links to awesome things we mentioned:
