Today, an estimated 250,000 K-12 students in 30 states receive full-time education online, an increase of 25 percent. With online education continuing to grow, what does it take for teachers to teach when they can’t "see" their students? What kind of training do teachers need? What does the virtual school instructional model look like? These and other questions were discussed at our July 24 online webinars, Teaching Virtually, with leaders from the Virginia Virtual Academy — Virginia’s only full-time virtual school. Two webinar sessions were recorded and are available for viewing. To view the 10:00 am session, click here! To view the 4:00 pm session, click here!
