(w/ Rob Cords)
Cyber High is one of the originators of asynchronous online coursework, circa 1998; although our roots date to 1978 via the Pass Program put forth in the service of California’s Migrant student population (whom we still serve in large percentage today). It is owned and operated by one of the largest county offices of education in California, the Fresno County Superintendent of Schools. It offers 79 online courses, 7 in Spanish, 47 courses are appropriate for A-G, and one CTE course.

Panel or Facilitated discussion (60 minutes)
Matthias Sturm
(w/ Anthony Burik)
The Technology and Distance Learning for California Adult Education report provides an overview of distance learning in WIOA-funded adult schools and noncredit community college programs. We present preliminary findings from the 2022-2023 report and invite participants to discuss online and blended learning as well as the impact of technology adoption in the delivery of program offerings as we look at the data. We also will reflect on the challenges and opportunities in a post-pandemic world.
