Visions for the future of online education offered in this article at Innovate. Are we at a Crossroads
for online education?
Despite the relative stasis that we are currently experiencing in the development of online education (Sodders 2004; Zemsky and Massey 2004, 31-32), I am convinced that dramatic changes will occur, sooner rather than later. Online instruction has grown about as much as it possibly can within current educational structures.
We are at the point where something has to give: Either schools will stay the same and leave online efforts at a standstill, or our concept of school will change and allow online instruction to grow.
