Welcome to TOTOL iNACOL

Welcome to TOTOL NACOL (Tricks of the Trade for K-12 Online Learning). This blog is a virtual community to share best practices in K-12 online learning and teaching, for exchanging "tricks of the trade" and to find new ways to help improve quality, interactivity and success in K-12 online learning for practitioners and learning. This blog was launched by the North American Council for Online Learning members (http://www.nacol.org/) and is a grass roots effort designed to encourage discussion about online learning. TOTOL is open to the broader K-12 educational community to inspire new ideas and encourage creative thinking about next generation education and tools that work.

Students, teachers, administrators, parents and other people interested in online learning are encouraged to participate.
