With so many combinations of ways to deliver learning online, trying to compare different models is like comparing apples to oranges. This week @englanderj brings some much-needed nuance to understanding the wide variety of #onlinelearning models: vhslearning.org/online-learn…

We stand against racism of ALL kinds. Bringing diverse groups of people together makes us stronger and the world a better place. Our Asian & Asian-American teachers, colleagues, and students are an integral part of VHS Learning and valuable members of our larger community. 1/2
