Digital Schooling: Online Options for the Homeschool

Recently, I’ve received a lot of questions from readers related to technology in the homeschool.

What apps do your kids use on their Kindle tablets?

How do you keep your kids safe online?

How did you set up your kids’ tablets with Parental Controls?

How did you decide which tablets and Chromebooks to buy?

How do you use Khan Academy as a part of your homeschool?

These are all great questions and, while I don’t claim to have the answers, I do have some ideas and suggestions to get you started! So we’ll be spending the next little while devoted to all kinds of homeschool technology questions!
