- Societal – information age demands for levels of academic performancei and graduation rate has change radically from fifty years ago.
- Legacy education reforms and restructuring have made little progress in the past twenty years, and without huge cost increases (25%) the future looks bleak.
- eLearningi is a scalable technology based solution that has a track record of increasing academic performance by an average of one letter grade level across all types and ages of students. (SOURCE: Many meta-studies including those from the Office of the Secretary of Defense)
- eLearning students will graduate high school with a full set of 21st Century workforce and college preparatory skills, and they will be motivated and skilled for a life span of eLearning.
- This massively individually skilled and motivated set of home-grown graduates will be a dream-fulfilled for every economic development professional working to position Arizona for global leadership.
- Arizona K-12 eLearning has an unfair advantage with support of Arizona’s $3 billion cluster of eLearning enterprises. These businesses are global leaders in workforce, higher education, military-simulation, and individual (life-long learner) as well as K-12 markets.
