What are the types of online instruction? Are they effective? Aren’t all the classes about the same? Some are free and others are costly—what’s the difference? Online education is exploding; it can work hand-in-glove with homeschooling, or it can be an expensive error and a time-waster. How can we avoid a mistake? This workshop will help equip families in making knowledgeable decisions, as well as offer tips on succeeding (avoiding failure) in the online classroom. We will also address the burning question—can we go to class in our jammies?
