Definition

  • Virtual schools is the term used to describe schools that deliver instruction predominantly or exclusively through computer programs accessible via the Internet. Unlike traditional brick-and-mortar schools, virtual schools may have no physical place called “school,” but create educational communities by linking students with teachers and classmates through the Internet.
