Stephen Downes

Knowledge, Learning, Community

Comprehensive report on the state of online learning at the K-12 level in canada. In typically Canadian fashion (see the diagram), it's a mish-mash. Also, the author, writing from the United States, sometimes sees things a bit, um, oddly. So there are little factual errors throughout, such as the assertion that "in Canada there is no separation of church and state," or the assertion that Atlantic Canada has "three of the four provinces being the three smallest in the country" (in fact, it has all four smallest), or the assertion that the Via rail runs only between Quebec city and Windsor. When the report discusses education (and not geography), though, it appears to be accurate, though focused more on political and administrative structures rather than processes and pedagogies.
