In this episode, Brett and Ellen discuss:
1. Exploring the key distinctions between these two educational approaches. They clarify that the primary difference lies in the level of control and decisionmaking: in distance education, a school and teacher are primarily responsible for a child's learning, whereas in homeschooling, these decisions rest with the parents.
2. Ellen notes that the choice between homeschooling and distance education can depend on individual state regulations in Australia. She also mentions that some families might choose distance education because they feel overwhelmed by the prospect of homeschooling. However, she points out that the level of parental involvement is quite similar in both approaches.
3. The discussion further delves into the specifics of each approach. For distance education, there are set requirements and timelines for assignments, much like a traditional school but conducted at home. Homeschooling, on the other hand, offers more flexibility in terms of timelines and daily schedules. Ellen emphasizes that homeschooling can be particularly beneficial for families seeking a more tailored education experience for their children.
4. The podcast also addresses concerns about the workload in distance education, often being higher than in traditional schools due to the lack of interruptions. In contrast, homeschooling allows for a more balanced approach without the constant demands of assignment deadlines.
Brett and Ellen discuss the cost differences between the two, noting that distance education is typically more expensive, akin to a private school education.
