In this episode we learn from Andrea Becker, the lead instructor at the Virtual Learning Academy Consortium (or VLAC) in Michigan, and her colleague Amanda McKay, the supervisor of student services with VLAC. While virtual learning was happening prior to 2020 but it has certainly been normalized as a viable option for many more students since the pandemic. We wanted to learn from Andrea and Amanda, veterans in the field of virtual learning, about how to do it well, and the components that make it most effective, and the curriculum program that is bringing huge success to students at all levels of need and ability.
