Week 3 Activity
Many years ago, four states were ahead of the curve and began to require online coursework for high school students. These states were: Michigan, Florida, Alabama, and Idaho. In this assignment, you will explore these requirements.
Research the arguments both for and against such legal mandates. Prepare a 3-page paper in which you present an overview of the current laws and present a point-counterpoint argument about this issue. Introduce a minimum of three supporting references and use APA-formatting to present your paper.
