Kentucky Department of Education revamps virtual learning system, expands options

The Kentucky Department of Education is moving from serving as a provider of online courses offered through the Kentucky Virtual High School to a partner in assisting schools in learning about full- and part-time online learning options available through multiple statewide providers.
 

An initiative of the Kentucky Department of Education and the Council on Postsecondary Education called the Kentucky Virtual Campus for K-12 provides easy access to the state providers and their courses. the Kentucky Virtual Campus’s website will provide expanded e-learning opportunities for Kentucky students.
 

Beginning this school year, the Kentucky Department of Education also will provide lists of digital learning resources that schools, classrooms and districts may use to offer multiple e-learning options to students through blended learning. Support and guidance also will be provided to help schools and districts make the best choices regarding the use of digital content and online courses.
 

The Kentucky Department of Education has identified three online course providers accessible here or directly through these links:
 

Barren Academy of Virtual and Expanded Learning (BAVEL)
Jefferson County eSchool
Kentucky Educational Television
