Page 13: NDPN Keynote by Dr. Michael Matwick

The survey says…• 45 of 50 states have

online programs• Virtual schools grow 45%

per year• 57% of schools provide

online learning to students

• 4 million college students are enrolled in fully online courses

Page 14: NDPN Keynote by Dr. Michael Matwick

US DOE Report on Online Learning• Students taking all or

part of a course online perform better

• Blended instruction is better than face-to-face or online only

• Online learning can be enhanced by giving students more control

“Disrupting Class”

Moving schools to a student-centric model through the

use of computer-based technology can be done using

disruptive innovation theory. This means deploying

computer-based instruction in areas of non-consumption

and letting the innovation take hold and improving

gradually over time.
