I think that I would like the online schools because someone else is responsible for passing along the knowledge.
Some may say it is more difficult to assess an online school for "fit", than a brick-and-mortar school. This is because a virtual school is difficult for parents to "tour", or for a child to "shadow" for a day. Additionally, virtual schools may typically oversee and monitor parents, requiring parents to be accountable for facilitating the school-determined educational process. For example, tasks may include scheduling, attendance, and teaching the child if the child does not understand the material in the way it is presented online. This recent
thread is about debating homeschool vs virtual school.
