Abstract

In the 2007 monograph, Online Nation, it was reported that more than 3.5 million college students enrolled in at least one online course in 2006, and that most college administrators felt that online education was important to the future of their institutions. In recent issues of this journal, there have been extensive and interesting articles describing statewide distance education initiatives, such as the Iowa Communications Network, the Florida Virtual School, and Network Nebraska, and there are plans to publish reviews of other large-scale K-12 initiatives like the Digital Dakota Network, and K-12 networks in Wisconsin.
