About 21,000 young people in 17 American states
do not attend classes in school buildings.
Instead,they receive their elementary and high
school education by working at home on computers.The center for Education
Reform says the United States has 67 public “cyberschools” and that is about
twice as many as two years ago.
The money for students to attend a cybersehool
cotes from the governments of the states where they live.Some educators say
cyberschools ieci money that should support traditional public schools.They
also say it is difficult to know if students are learning well.
Other educators praise this new form of
education for letting students work at their own speed.These people say
cyberschools help students who were unhappy or unsuccessful in traditional
schools.They say learning at home by computer ends long bus rides for children
who live far from school.
Whatever the judgment of cyberschools,they are
getting more and more popular.For example,a new cyberschool called
Commonwealth Connections Academy will take in students this fall.It will serve
children in the state of Pennsylvania from ages five through thirteen.
Children get free equipment for their online
education.This includes a computer,a printer,books and technical services.
Parents and students talk with teachers by telephone or by sending emails
through their computers when.necesary.
Students at cyberschools usually do not know one
another.But 56 such students finished studies at Western Pennsvlvániä Cyber
Charter School recently met for the first time.They were guests of honour at
their graduation.

在美国17个州大约有21000位青少年没有在学校里修读课程.而是选择在家里通过电脑完成了由小学到高中的学习.教育改革中心表明全美有67所公共“网络学校”,是两年前的两倍之多.
学生们接受网络学校教育的学费来源于他们所在州政府.一些教育学家称网络学校占用了那些本来用于支持传统公共学校的资金.他们还说很难了解学生在网络学校是否学得好.
另一些教育学家则称赞这种新的教学模式,因为可以让学生们以符合个人的进度来学习.他们说网络学校帮助了那些在传统学校里不快乐和不成功的的学生,而且在家里用电脑进行学习令那些离校远的学生避免了长途的上学车程.
无论对网校的评价如何,它们正在逐渐流行.举个例子,一所叫联邦在线学院将在这个秋天面向宾夕法尼亚州的五岁到十三岁的孩子正式招生.孩子们可以获得免费的设备,包括一台电脑、一台打印机、课本和技术支持.必要时家长和学生可以通过电话或者用电脑发电邮和教师通话.
通过网校学习的学生们彼此之间并不认识.56位西部宾夕法尼亚州网络特许学校毕业的学生最近才第一次见面.他们获邀出席毕业典礼.
