[NYT] Online Schooling Grows, Setting Off a Debate

THE NEW YORK TIMES NATIONAL FRIDAY,FEBRUARY 1, 2008

In the article relate that half a million American children take classes online and the taking number of online school repid have been grown. It said that at the Florida Virtual School, the largest Internet public school in the country, more than 50,000 students are taking courses this years. I was quite shock after reading this article. Actually, I am one of person who against the online school, becase of losing corporation. I don't think school is a place to lear knowledge but also the realtionship between friends. When you go to the society, the relationships between person is become a hige issue even though somebody has really good skill. Therefore, I was quite shock and worry about huge number of students who take their classes in their home. It might be lose huge opportunity to learn about people relationship.
