Quality, of course, can vary GREATLY between programs & instructors. On-line courses is an important option for folks who are otherwise isolated & unable to attend school due to geographical, time, and/or other constraints. It's also a great way for folks to be able to supplement the materials/courses othewise available to them. Johns Hopkins Center for Gifted & Talented Youth offers some courses on-line. My kids' HS is starting to explore this as a way of reaching more students--we shall see how it goes (too late for us, as our D is graduating in 2008).
