This brief video makes the case that education is not synonymous with schooling.

In an age of customized education, Heritage Foundation scholar Lindsey Burke says, policymakers must ensure that “education funding is free from 19th-century ideas about schooling, in order to empower families to enjoy the benefits of 21st-century delivery models. School choice — whether vouchers, education tax credits, education savings accounts, or virtual schools — ensures that families won’t be left behind when the online learning revolution is in full force.”
