OK I have to say this, as a teacher in an online program in
children's literature.
Yes, learning online is different. But it can be not only as effective
but sometimes more intense. It was Kay Vandergrift who brought
me to online teaching, and she who helped create the program at
Rutgers I so happily teach in.
I wrote an article about the work of online teaching, "A Particular
Intensity: Teaching Children's Literature Online" in the May/June
2002 Horn Book.
The program, a certificate in children's literature and technology, is
described at
