While we talk about education, teaching, and schools all the time, we rarely define great education. This week we discuss learning, the kind of college education we want for our teens, and why forming a clear picture of each is essential to deciding where to look at colleges, and ultimately which one to choose. We also explore East Carolina University’s Early College Second Life Program as a way for students to gain experience in college while still in high school. Students provide fascinating insights into starting college life on a virtual campus.
