ONLINE LEARNING
Public education is not known for rapid change but with the advent of ever expanding
technologies, the last 10 years has seen a growth in online learning. Significant changes in how
students access information, share ideas and learn are taking place in K-12 public education.
Authors John Watson and L. Kay Johnson (2011) state, parents, students, and educators are
beginning to realize the unparalleled equity and access to a high quality education that online
learning affords and as of late 2010, 48 states operated some form of state-led supplemental
online learning program for students attending physical schools, and/or full-time programs for
students who take their entire education online (p. 205).
What is online learning? The most accepted definition of a virtual school is an entity
approved by a state or governing body that offers courses through distance deliverymost
commonly using the Internet (Barbour & Reeves, 2009, p. 402). Online learning utilizes text,
video, audio, and animation via the internet and allows students to take part in educational
activities (both delivery and learning) at a distance synchronously (in real time) or
asynchronously.
Summary of Virtual School Status in the United States
Online learning is presently experiencing a surge in growth and with each passing year,
enrollment in virtual schools continues to increase (Barbour & Reeves, 2009). More students
than ever before were taking online and blended courses in SY 201213 and two new states
allowed fully online schools last year for a total of 31 states (Gemin, et al. 2012). According to
Keeping the Pace with Online and Blended Learning(2012), there were 619,847 course
enrollments (one student taking a one-semester-long online course) in 28 state virtual schools in
SY 2011-12 which is an increase of 16% over the previous year (Gemin, et al.). Further, blended
schools and blended programs in districts are a fast-growing and high-profile segment with an
estimated number of several million, or slightly more than 5% of the total K-12 population
across the United States taking part in all online programs (Gemin, et al.).
The images below identify an increase in the number of virtual schools which are being
offered as full time and blended/hybrid learning environments. Figure 1 from the reportKeeping
the Pace with Online and Blended Learning(2012) shows a graphic representation of the number
of course enrollments in the United States Virtual Schools in SY 2011-12 and how the program
size relates to the ratio to state population. Floridas Virtual Schools has the strongest enrollment

Benefits
There are many benefits to implementing a program of online learning. Barbour and
Reeves (2009) explain the benefits of virtual schooling could be divided into six areas:
Higher levels of motivation
Expanding educational access Providing high-quality learning opportunities Improving student outcomes and skills Allowing for educational choice Administrative efficiency (p. 409)
Professors Tom Clark and Zane Berge summarize the benefits of virtual schools in their
publication Virtual Schools and eLearning: Planning for Success. Drs. Clark and Berge (2005)
explain virtual schools make courses accessible to student s that they could not otherwise take.
Some virtual school courses enrich the curriculum through their high quality and/or challenging
nature, and help students meet measurable state and national standards of learning. Virtual
schools can extend equitable access to high quality education to students from high-need urban
and rural schools, low achieving students, and students with specials needs (p. 2). One key
benefit of Virtual schools is the expansion of educational choice.
XYZ Sc ho ol Di st ri ct
The XYZ School District is located in rural Southern Maryland. The public school
system in XYZ District provides education to students in grade K-8 and has a student population
of 2300. Mr. Henry, the school superintendent in XYZ District, strives to provide pathways for
students to build their 21st
century skills. He recognizes the importance of infusing technology
into each of the districts six schools and has secured enough technology funding to make
computers available to students on a basis of 1 computer per 4 students. Recently, a need for
virtual schooling opportunities arose. XYZ district found the following challenges which Virtual
Schooling can help them overcome:
1. Several students throughout the district have been identified as gifted and in need of
an accelerated curriculum for mathematics. Higher level math courses were not offered in their
districts K-8 schools and to meet the needs of these students, additional staff members would
need to be hired. Recent budget cuts prevented hiring of new teachers for the benefit of a select
-

few students so teachers were having difficulty meeting the demands of accommodating their
educational needs.
2. To meet the demands of the new state mandated standards, several electives were
being removed from the curriculum to make room for a greater emphasis core subjects. Electives
such as Art, Foreign Language Programs (Spanish and French), and Music would no longer be
offered in XYZ District schools.
Since the XYZ school district recognizes the importance of providing these elective
courses to students in order to maintain a well-rounded education, it has decided to add a
meaningful online supplemental program by providing for greater technology integration into
their public schools. In order to implement a virtual school program that encompasses a balanced
curriculum which includes the state standards, XYZ district has sought out a virtual school
consultant to assist in the creation of an online learning program.
Mission
The creation of a mission statement is a quality strategy for teaching and learning at a
distance. From the textbookTeaching and Learning at a Distance, authors Albright et al., (2012)
identify that, The mission statement contains an explicit statement of the purpose of distance
education (p. 165). Developing a clear mission statement can be achieved by focusing on the
following list of questions:
1. What are the educational needs of students in XYZ District?2. What type of school would best meet the needs of the student population?3. What will the learning outcomes, goals, and objectives of the virtual school?4. What type of program will help meet these goals and objectives?
Developing clear mission and vision statements will help guide XYZ District through the process
of developing an online learning program. Recommended mission and vision statements which
apply to the specific needs of XYZ District is as follows:
XYZ district is committed to using technology to increase equity and access to the
highest quality educational opportunities for K-8 students.
XYZ District proposes to target students who have limited educational
opportunities by providing elective courses and advanced placement courses
online using highly qualified instructors and effective learning opportunities.

The XYZ District provides online courses to K-8 students who otherwise would
not have the opportunity to take courses in subjects of arts and humanities
including art, music, and foreign languages.
XYZ Vi rt ua l Scho ol Di st ri ct Po li cies
When developing policies for virtual schools it is important to realize they should be
based on the policies already in place for brick and mortars schools in that district. Few
policymakers anticipated that any space time, any space place learning was possible when most
education laws were authored over the past 50 years. The issues largely center on determining
when existing educational policies are appropriate for this new model of learning and when new
policies should be created (Wicks & Associates, 2010, p. 6). Focusing on how students should
learn will help determine which new policies should be created. The following issues should be
taken into account when determining policies:
Academic: calendar, course integrity, transcripts, evaluation process, course dates anddeadlines, curriculum approval process, accreditation, quality standards and program
assessment, enrollment caps;
Fiscal: Tuition rate, technology fee, state fiscal regulations; Geographic: Service area regional limitations (in this case the district is the region); Governance: Single versus multiple board oversight, staffing, institutional accountability; Labor-Management: Compensation and workload, development incentives, intellectual
property, faculty training;
Legal: use of copyright materials, intellectual property of students, DMCA and TEACAct implications, accessibility, liability;
Student Support: Student services (admissions, advising, tutoring), computing systemaccounts, student training, handling student/parent complaints (Albright et al., 2012, p.
327).
Conduct an analysis of potential markets. According to Albright et al. (2012 ), It isimportant to determine whether the potential market exists in an academic content area
that is consistent with the core mission and values of the host organization. (p. 321).
Review existing policies and rewrite them as needed to reflect a virtual school.
Identify the type of program which is required to meet the needs of the students in XYZDistrict.
Challenges of Virtual Schools
Currently virtual schools have several challenges to overcome including high start up
costs associated with virtual schools, access issues surrounding the digital divide, and the
-

approval or accreditation of virtual schools (Barbour and Reeves, 2009, p. 409). Common
challenges and possible solutions are outlined in the following table:
Challenge Solution
Technical Difficulties
There may be instances where students havetechnical problems that interfere with their
ability to access course materials.
Teachers should establish a close working
relationship with the technology support staffand keep the lines of communication open so
when technical problems arise, they will know
about them be able to address glitches quickly.Also, make sure students understand their
responsibilities include locating another
computer (at the library, for example) shouldtheir own be compromised.
PlagiarismPlagiarism is a serious problem and with an
increase in technology literacy of our studentshas never been easier to commit.
Provide lessons on plagiarism to clarify whatconstitutes plagiarism and have policies in
place to deal with them. Utilize plagiarismdetection services such as TurnItIn.com orSafeAssign.
Cheating
Cheating is just a prevalent in distance
education as in traditional classes.
Rely less on objective testing and more on
project based learning, portfolios, and small
formative tests throughout the course (Albrightet al., 2012).
Model Comparisons
There are many different types of virtual schools operating in the United States. Clark
(2005) indicated that virtual schools can be categorized in seven ways (see Table 1). While
Watson et al (2011) describes five types of virtual schools (see Table 2). A comparison of each
category is below:
Table 1
Clarks Seven Categories of Virtual Schools (http://www.irrodle.org)
Type Description
State-sanctioned,state-level
Virtual schools operating on a state-wide level, such as the FloridaVirtual School.
College and
university-based
Independent university high schools or university-sponsored delivery of
courses to K-12 students, such as the University of California College
Prep Online (UCCP).
Consortium and
regionally-based
Virtual schools operated by a group of schools or school districts, such as
the Virtual High School (VHS).

Local education
agency-based
Virtual schools operated by a single school or school district, such as the
Gwinnett County Online Campus.
Virtual charter
schools
Virtual schools created under the charter school legislation in many
states, such as Connections Academy, also commonly known ascyberschools.
Private virtualschools
Virtual schools that are operated in the same manner as a brick andmortar private school, such as the Christa McAuliffe Academy.
For-profit providers
of curricula, content,
tools andinfrastructure
Companies that act as vendors for the delivery of courses or the use of
course materials, such as APEX Learning.
Table 2
Watson, Winograd, and Kalmon (2004) offer different categories which have five types of
virtual school as summarized below in Table 2:
Type Description
Statewide
supplemental
programs
Students take individual courses but are enrolled in a physical school or
cyber school within the state. These programs are authorized by the state
and overseen by state education governing agencies.
District-level
supplementalprogram
Are typically operated by autonomous districts and are typically not
tracked by state agencies.
Single-district cyber
schools
Provide an alternative to the traditional face-to-face school environment
and are offered by individual districts for students within that district.
Multi-district cyberschools Are operated within individual school districts but enroll students fromother school districts within the state. This represents the largest growthin K-12 online learning.
Cyber charters Are chartered within a single district but can draw students from across
the state.
Wicks & Associates (2010) state that every online program can be described based on a series of
defining dimensions (p.11). Table three summarizes these ten dimensions:

Model Recommendations
Taking the specific needs of XYZ School District into consideration and the criteria mentioned
above, it is recommended XYZ School District implement the following type of program:
1. ComprehensivenessXYZ District should implement astatewide supplementalprogram. Students take individual courses but are enrolled in a physical school or cyber
school within the state. These programs are authorized by the state and overseen by state
education governing agencies.
2. Courses are taken as a form ofblended online learning. Blended learning is a formaleducation program in which a student learns at least in part through online delivery of
content and instruction with some element of student control over time, place, path or
pace using a learning management system (LMS) and at least in part at a supervised
brick-and-mortar location away from home (kpk12.com). Learning management systems
are a means of providing learning experiences and tracking student achievement toward
state and No Child left Behind standards and is the best choice (over a course
management system) for K-12 level students (Albright et al., 2012, p. 184).
3. The Blended/Online learning model should be theself blendmodel which describes ascenario in which students choose to take one or more courses entirely online to
supplement their traditional courses and the teacher-of-record is the online teacher
(kpk12.com, p. 18).
4. Reach and TypeDistrict blended and online programs are those created by a schooldistrict, entirely orprimarily for that districts students. Since the course demands relate
specifically to the needs of XYZ district, it is recommended this type of virtual
experience be limited to the students in this district only. Additionally, residents of the
district who are not currently enrolled but have an interest in taking the virtual courses
can register with a small tuition charge to help support the program.

5. LocationHybrid method of school and home. Supplementary courses are offered onschool grounds and in each school in the district but having access to the program from
any off-site computer allows students to pace themselves according to their own
individual needs.
6. DeliveryBothsynchronous and asynchronous delivery given by on-sight staff ofteachers. Assignments will often involve working with a partner or in a group. This
arrangement of cooperative groups requires real-time interaction with peers. Other times
course lessons may be presented in text form, animated form, or as a video presentation.
7. Operational ControlState and localboard members supply the curriculum requirementsand the virtual classes follow the same curriculum standards as outlined for traditional
classroom settings. However, the supplemental virtual school program must be approved
before implementation.
8. Type of Instruction: Courses are offered in art, music, advanced mathematics, foreignlanguages of French and Spanish and fully online.
9. Grade levelelementary and middle. XYZ School District serves a K-8 studentpopulation. The virtual school program is geared toward students in grades K8 and
beyond given the educational needs of the gifted/advanced mathematics students who
will be taking courses at grade levels higher than grade 8. With foreign languages being
offered online, students as young as Kindergarten are encouraged to take these online
courses.
10.Teacher-Student Interactionhigh interaction through lesson delivery, activity, andcommunication using Web 2.0 applications. While the teacher is facilitator of the
program, students will be expected to utilize LMS appropriately. The teacher will
monitor student progress and growth, recognize difficulties, and implement strategies to
assist struggling students. Through the use of office hours and an online help-desk,
teachers can help students with technology issues as well as support their learning.
11.Student-Student Interactionhigh interaction between students as they collaborate, usecooperative learning strategies, create group based projects, and use Web 2.0 applications
to reinforce communications.

Overcoming Anticipated Hurdles
The design model for XYZ School District should be considered a pilot program.
Obstacles can be anticipated and arrangements made to meet the demands of an online lesson
delivery system and thwart problems as they arise.Possible Problems Suggestions for Solving Problems
Service Slowdowns Make sure organization has reliable Internet access, sufficient server
capacity, adequate routers, servers for redundancy in the case of serverfailure, emergency generators during power failure and a file backup
system and off-site storage (Albright et al., 2010, p. 324).
Student has difficulty
with technology
Consider having IT staff member available to students and a Help Desk
support line. Technical assistance for online learners is crucial for the
user-friendliness and getting help in real time is a must for young
students.
Funding Annually budget for repair and replacement of technology. Most
technology should be replaced every four to five years including routersand servers.
Faculty not trained Training programs should be given in the form of workshops on using
the chosen delivery technologies and course management system.
Access to materials Staff members should check all lesson delivery materials daily to ensure
they are in good working order and to limit student frustration with the
program.
Policies As this is a pilot program, there will be many opportunities to review
and revise the online school policies. By examining what is working andwhat needs changing, faculty members create a positive working
environment and prove they are invested in the project.
Plan of Implementation
Developing an online or blended program using provider-supplied courses and district
teaching requires solid planning and strategic steps for implementation. The suggested timeline
presented here with and key milestone events leading to the launch of the virtual school
supplementary blended program has been adapted from a report which was outlined and
published by John Watson et al. (2012) in the publicationKeeping Pace with K-12 Online and
Blended Learning: An Annual Review of Policy and Practice (kpk12.com). It includes a 12
month strategic planning process. The implementation plan should begin one full year prior to
the first online course being launched.

Compiling Data Through to May
Throughout the school year it is important to compile data showing student progress and
growth. In May, prepare a report to share results with state and local board of education
members. Continue to review and revise program time parameters and policies and meet
regularly to analyze successes and to alter program as needed.
Six Criteria Necessary for a Sound Vir tual School Model
Mission and Goals: Identify a need for using technology and projected outcomes. The
community and faculty must be supportive of the online program. Identifying valid goals whichuse technology to meet the educational needs of students (as well as those in the districts
community) helps convey the project planners level of confidence for successfully meeting the
goals.
Planning for Distance Education: No organization should enter into the distance
education marketplace without a clearly though through plan that has gained the consensus
-

15VIRTUAL COURSE CONSULTANT PROJECT
approval of all key players (Albright et al., 2012, p.319). Including staff and procedures to
make sure the courses are effective and are high quality.
Professional Development:Many online program professional development
requirements focus on helping teachers understand how to motivate individual learners, enhance
student interaction and understanding without visual cues, tailor instruction to particular learning
styles, and develop or modify interactive lessons to meet student needs (Wicks & Associates,
2010, p. 12). Ensure faculty readiness and support by offering access to Technology
Symposiums, Webinars, and Professional Development Workshops.
Access to Technology: Readiness of the technology infrastructure means ensuring the
technology is reliable, sufficiently robust, and well supported and backed by necessary funding
(Albright et al., 2012, p.324). Without a strong and working network complete with sufficient
back-up plans, the project will fail.
Support: Faculty support including training, course evaluation support, and technology
support is important so teachers and administrators know they can get assistance as needed and
they are adequately prepared to implement the program. Faculty will need training, assistance
with course development and delivery, and access to a dedicated help desk as means of support.
Student support includes access to an online library, technology information should they have
trouble interacting with the course technologies.
Institutional Policies: Distance education policies must be developed and revisions to
existing policies are done when appropriate including online learning policy, academic policies,
fiscal, geographic, governance, labor-management, legal and student support policies (Albright
et al., 2012, p.327).
