Online Learning-The New Initiative

      This week's reading was about online learning and the theories and psychology behind it.  It was very interesting to read about the cognitive reasoning of online learning.  I had not thought about the "cognitive" since I took psychology as an undergraduate in college.  It was interesting to read about the different types of learners and realize that many students would benefit from online learning because it gives them a chance to truly personalize their learning experience.

     In my district many teachers and students are using blended and online learning in their classes.  Online learning is used in our school to help students gain credit in classes that they have not passed.  It is offered as classes during the school day as well as after school.  It gives the students a chance to regain credit that was already lost.

To help show what I learned from the article.  I created another storify.  You can access it here:

I really enjoyed reading about this topic.
