Distance learning rules mulled over by Montana

The Montana Board of Public Education http://bpe.mt.gov/ said last week it had made “significant progress on access to K-12 distance learning” in the form of a rule change recommended by an advisory committee.

Under the proposed new rule, in order to be eligible to teach Montana students through distance learning, the prospective teacher would have to have graduated from an accredited teacher preparation program and be certified “in Montana or elsewhere.”

State rules have required educators to hold a Montana certification to teach credited courses, a rule that has limited public schools from offering learning opportunities to students.
