ACCESS

The things that stood out most while viewing the PowerPoint was that it provides access to advance diploma courses. This program sounds very interesting. School districts can connect with any other (IVC) labs in Alabama so coursework and teachers can be shared statewide. (IVC) stands for: Interactive Videoconferencing. I think that this is a wonderful program it is cool that they have a lot of support behind the program. while looking at the PowerPoint it said that the Governor and the Alabama Legislature is supporting distance learning.There are some problems what happens to the schools that have a lack of income. I think that they should figure out a plain to get the things needed for the program for the schools who have a income problem. The vision is the state of Alabama will provide equal access to high quality instruction to improve student achievement through distance learning opportunities. How can it be equal if every school cant afford the software or equipment.
