Gallup: Americans View Online Education Positively
A Gallup survey has found the adults in the U.S. view online education as a good value and option. But it is viewed weakest in terms of trusted grading and acceptance by employers. From the report:
“Still something of a novelty, online education is seen relatively positively by Americans for giving students a wide range of curricula options and for providing good value for the money. However, Americans tend to think it provides less rigorous testing and grading, less qualified instructors, and has less credence with employers compared with traditional, classroom-based education.”
