19 Online graduation prerequisites Idaho, Florida, Michigan and Alabama require taking online classes for graduation and 10 more states plan to implement similar requirements in the near future.

20 Teacher preparation The majority of teacher preparation programs offer a limited quantity of technology courses, often times limited to one course or a maximum of a series of workshops. (Grant, 2012; Kay, 2006)
