This week is National Distance Learning Week. According to the USDLA,

Currently, over 3.5 million college students are taking online course and/or earning online college degrees. At the secondary school level, over 700,000 high school students are taking one or more courses online, and nearly 40 states have established state-wide or state-lead virtual schools. Michigan became the first state in 2007 to require high school students take at least one online course for graduation.

And that’s just in the US!
Celebrate by enrolling in an online seminar or by reading some of the newest articles in eLearn Magazine.
