Topic 3 - School Choice

Yesterday, our group discussed Home Schooling for Topic 3, which was on School Choice.  We talked the continued increase in parents who choose home school and their reasons behind it.  We discussed the benefits of it, including self-paced instruction, flexible scheduling and meeting the needs of the child.  We also talked about the drawbacks, such as less social opportunities and extracurriculars and the parent may not be able to teach a certain subject well.  Then we explored how home schooling has changed recently, experienced reform and the new innovations coming from it.  Once again, our group did an excellent job collaborating and we're now getting used to communicating through WiziQ!
