An article on EdWeek raises questions about student performance when they attend online high schools. Now, I am no huge fan of using test to judge student performance, but if we use those as a measure to compare groups of students who have different education experiences, then I think we may have found an appropriate use of those data.
The issue from my perspective is in the quality of the implementation... the same things that are true of in-person schools is true of online schools. Poor curriculum and weak instruction results in inadequate learning.
