Examples of TLO in K-12 Settings

Spend some time exploring the online cyber charter schools listed below. As you do, try to gain a deeper understanding of what they do, how they do it, and what their learners are like.

Click each cyber charter school below to explore their website.

If you were making a decision for your own child, how would these cyber charter school's materials make you feel?  If you can, compare their websites with the website of the district where you went to school and determine what you think about making such a choice as a parent.  You should also think about potential broader social implications of the K-12 TLO movement. You can reflect on some of this in your discussion forum posts regarding the pros and cons of K-12 TLO. 

Next, view the K12, Inc. website. This will help you prepare as you participate in the discussion forum this week.
