Teaching in the Digital Age
Earlier this month, the Quick & Ed team discussed (here and here) what schools might look like in the future, as online learning continues to take hold. Today, the Washington Post takes a look at how virtual learning changes how teachers teach. According to the article, online teaching jobs can be highly competitive - because of the flexibility in hours, but also because of how it changes the role of the teacher.
