Response to Christina Ransey Blog

I agree with Ms. Ramsey’s ascertain that online education is not for every student. However, I do think that it should be an option for students who do not do well in the physical classroom. There are students who for a variety of reasons have a difficult time learning in an environment that if socially demeaning to them.

In addition, online education should be an option for students who have to travel or move great deals such as students whose parents are in the military or because of business. The children would not lose whatever skills, nor would they have to face the task of starting over socially in a new school.

One idea that was not mentioned in any of the blogs or articles I have read compare home schooling to online education. I do not think that they are the same thing, the reason that I say this because when you look at the curriculum. The home school curriculum mirrors the same format as curriculum in a classroom. As we are learning online education curriculum is different than that of physical classroom.
