and
September 14, 2007.
Point us to eLearning Centered Schools
During August eSATSi [0] will be finalizing a number of advocacy documents. We need more current information on the effect of eLearning on academic performancei [0]. Our files contain a number of meta-studies and reports on full eLearning with 1 computer per student adoptions. But many more implementations are happening.
We are hoping that you may know of a fully deployed eLearning school or a report that we have overlooked. High schools are of special interest. Just drop us a line.
