VISCED

Implementing online learning can be a complex process, and a smooth implementation is critical for success. MDR Education Market Research recently conducted a survey of over 220 educators at all levels on the most critical success factors for implementing credit recovery, online courses, and full time programs. A webinar showcasing the survey results was held on the 20th of September 2012.

The VISCED project has recently published reports on both teacher training and potential success factors related to virtual schooling. These are both interim reports that will de adapted and expanded in the course of the first part of 2012. The report on teacher training  provides a presentation and discussion of distance education (DE) history and background. The report on potential success factors is based on the set of Re.ViCa Critical Success Factors adapted for use by the Distance Learning Benchmarking Club and then reworded for schools in terms of a virtual school within a conventional school.
