Introduction
This report presents analysis of information on virtual learners reported by schools to the state and shares findings in a highly consumable way to aid the evaluation of virtual learning programs. This year’s report is the sixth edition of this annual publication. Past reports are available through the MVLRI website.
The report is organized into several sections. The first section looks at schools as the unit of analysis. The next section focuses on the virtual courses taken. The third section focuses on students. The fourth section captures performance on statewide assessments. There is also a brief section containing maps of virtual use. Each section is meant to capture the essential findings without being overly data intensive; however, data tables have been included in the appendices to provide those interested with more in-depth information. Information about the report’s methodology is captured in Appendix A. Please note that in some tables and figures, the percentage data may not sum to 100% due to rounding.
Schools
Fast Facts
- 598 school districts reported at least one virtual enrollment. This represents two-thirds of Michigan school districts.
- Over half of the 1,158 schools with virtual enrollments had 100 or more virtual enrollments.
- 74% of schools with virtual enrollments had a general education school emphasis; 25% had an alternative education emphasis.
- 87% of schools with virtual learning were LEA schools.
- LEA schools accounted for 58% of the virtual enrollments; PSA schools generated 39% of the virtual enrollments.
- 57% of virtual enrollments came from schools with part-time virtual learning options.
- LEA schools are increasingly creating full-time virtual schools.
- More successful students in face-to-face courses tend to be provided with online courses through Michigan Virtual, and Michigan Virtual students had the highest virtual pass rate (79%).
- 97% of virtual enrollments came from schools with 100 or more virtual enrollments.
- About 78% of virtual enrollments came from students in grades 9-12.
- 29% of virtual enrollments came from suburban schools, the most of any locale.
- Schools with a general education emphasis had a 63% virtual pass rate, outperforming those with an alternative education emphasis which had a pass rate of 44%.
- 25% of schools had a school-wide virtual pass rate of 90% to 100%.
Number of Districts
For the 2017-18 school year, 598 districts reported having at least one virtual enrollment. This represented two-thirds of Michigan public school districts (see MDE Fast Facts 2017-18 for count of Michigan public school districts). Within those districts, 1,158 schools reported virtual enrollments.
By Grade Level
Across the 1,158 schools, 581,911 virtual enrollments were taken. Students in 12th grade enrolled in the most virtual courses (157,943) representing approximately 27% of all virtual enrollments. The overall pass rate for virtual enrollments was 55%, the same as the prior year. See Table F1 for a more specific breakdown of all the completion statuses. This ranged from a high of 70% in kindergarten to a low of 41% in 9th grade. See Table B1 for more information. Consistent with findings from previous years, virtual learners passed their virtual courses at a lower rate (55%) than they passed their non-virtual courses (79%). This gap of 24% is 1% larger than the 2016-17 school year. See Table B2.
By School-Level Virtual Pass Rate
Of the 1,158 schools with virtual enrollments, 289 or 25% had school-level virtual pass rates of 90% to 100%. A little more than half of schools had virtual pass rates of 70% or better. See Table B3.
By Entity Type
LEA schools (58%) and PSA schools (39%) accounted for almost all the virtual enrollments. Over 1,000 (87%) schools with virtual enrollments came from LEA schools while only 108 (9%) of the schools were PSAs. See Table B4. LEA schools had a higher pass rate (58%) than PSA schools (51%). See Table B5 or, for a more in-depth look at the completion statuses, see Table F2.
By Full-Time Virtual Schools
The number of full-time virtual schools expanded from 52 in 2016-17 to 70 in 2017-18, an increase of about 35%. Fifty-five of the 70 full-time virtual schools (79%) were LEA schools. The 13 PSA cyber schools accounted for 19% of the full-time virtual schools. See Table B6. About one-third of students attending full-time virtual schools did so at LEA schools with two-thirds attending a PSA cyber school. The number of enrollments from full-time virtual LEA schools jumped from 41,500 in 2016-17 to over 73,000 (76% increase) and now represents almost 30% of full-time virtual enrollments; however the 13 PSA cyber schools remain the virtual enrollment leader with almost 175,000 enrollments. The pass rates between these two entity types varies somewhat with full-time virtual LEA schools at 47% and PSA cyber schools at 53%. See Table B7 and Table F3. In total, 43% of virtual enrollments came from cyber or full-time virtual schools – five percent higher than last year.
By Part-Time Virtual Schools
About 94% of the schools offering virtual learning do so to supplement their face-to-face course offerings. These 1,088 schools, referred to in this report as part-time virtual schools, were predominantly LEA schools (88%). See Table B8. Eighty-six percent of the part-time virtual students were enrolled through LEA schools and 12% through PSA schools. LEA schools accounted for over 265,000 virtual enrollments or 80% of the part-time enrollments. In total, part-time virtual enrollments accounted for 53% of all the virtual enrollments for the year. LEA schools had a pass rate of 61% whereas PSA schools had a pass rate of 47%. Overall, the pass rates for the part-time virtual schools (58%) was seven percentage points higher than the rate for the full-time virtual schools (51%). See Table B9 and Table F4.
In general, we know very little about the performance of various online course providers; most virtual programs buy their online courses from a third-party vendor. An exception is Michigan Virtual. Approximately 13% of the part-time virtual students took at least one virtual course with Michigan Virtual and accounted for slightly more than 27,000 enrollments (8% of part-time virtual enrollments). The Michigan Virtual pass rate was 22% higher (79%) than the rest of the part-time virtual enrollments (57%). See Table B10 and Table F5. There were, however, also important differences observed in the non-virtual performance between Michigan Virtual student and non-Michigan Virtual students. Students taking courses with Michigan Virtual passed their non-virtual courses 91% of the time, whereas the other part-time virtual students only passed their non-virtual courses 76% of the time. See Table B11.
By School Emphasis
Schools designated with General Education as their emphasis produced 339,762 (58%) of the virtual enrollments. Schools with Alternative Education as their emphasis accounted for 238,027 (41%) of the virtual enrollments. See Table B12. There was a considerable difference in virtual pass rates between these two types of schools. General Education schools had a 63% virtual pass rate, whereas Alternative Education schools had a 44% virtual pass rate (see Table B13 and Table F6), though this, too, varied by entity type. LEA schools, for instance, had a 71% virtual pass rate for General Education schools and a 44% virtual pass rate for Alternative Education schools. See Table B14.
By Number of Virtual Enrollments
Over half of schools with virtual enrollments (56%) had 100 or more virtual enrollments. These schools were responsible for 97% of the virtual enrollments. As has been observed in previous years, schools with less than 10 virtual enrollments were the next highest percentage of schools with 17%; however, they only generated .1% of the virtual enrollments. See Table B15.
Another trend that continued was that, in general, schools with fewer virtual enrollments per students performed better. Consider for instance, that 35% of schools with an average of one to two virtual enrollments per virtual learner had a virtual pass rate of 90% to 100% whereas only 13% of schools with an average of four or more virtual courses per virtual learner had a 90% to 100% pass rate. See Table B16.
By Locale
Rural schools represented about 35% of schools with virtual enrollments. Suburban settings provided the second most schools with 29%. Suburban schools, however, tallied the largest percentage of the virtual enrollments at 29%. For the first time, all four locales had more than 100,000 virtual enrollments. See Table B17. In each of the four locales, schools with 100 or more virtual enrollments accounted for the largest percentage of schools. Similarly, schools with less than 25 virtual enrollments was the second most likely scenario. See Table B18. Virtual pass rates varied by locale with rural and suburban schools having the highest virtual pass rate at 60% and those not specified having the lowest at 39%. Both city schools (16%) and those not specified (17%) had the highest percentage of schools with pass rates less than 20%. See Tables B19 and B20.
Courses
Fast Facts
- 581,911 virtual enrollments were taken by Michigan K-12 students; the overall pass rate for virtual enrollments was 55%.
- Virtual enrollments were spread across 943 different course titles.
- 66% of virtual enrollments occurred in the core subject areas of English Language and Literature, Mathematics, Life and Physical Sciences, and Social Sciences and History.
- The course titles with the highest enrollments for each core subject were:
- English Language and Literature: English 9, English 10, English 12, and English 11
- Mathematics: Geometry, Algebra II, Algebra I, and Consumer Math
- Life and Physical Sciences: Biology, Chemistry, Earth Science, and Physical Science
- Social Sciences and History: U.S. History, Economics, World History, World History and Geography
- The virtual pass rates for each core subject were:
- English Language and Literature: 51%
- Mathematics: 48%
- Life and Physical Sciences: 52%
- Social Sciences and History: 56%
- 30 different Advanced Placement (AP) courses were taken virtually.
- The percentage of enrollments was fairly consistent by subject area across rural, town, suburban, and city schools.
- Online courses (defined as including a teacher in the virtual environment) produced 83% of the virtual enrollments. Digital learning (without a teacher in the virtual environment) and blended learning (some virtual, some face-to face instruction) each accounted for about 9% and 7% of the virtual enrollments, respectively.
Number of Courses
The 581,911 virtual enrollments came from 943 different course titles, as determined by unique SCED codes.
Courses by Subject Area
English Language and Literature was the subject area with the highest virtual enrollment with 108,698 enrollments – 19% of all virtual enrollments. Social Sciences and History, Mathematics, and Life and Physical Sciences were the other subject areas with 10% or more of the virtual enrollments. In high enrollment subject areas (greater than 25,000 virtual enrollments), virtual pass rates varied from a low of 48% in Mathematics to a high of 62% for Miscellaneous and Physical, Health, and Safety Education. See Table C1 and Table F7. The virtual pass rates were consistently lower than the non-virtual pass rate for the virtual learners in their non-virtual courses, a trend observed in past years. See Table C2.
Highest Virtual Enrollment Courses
For English Language and Literature, the most highly enrolled in virtual courses were 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th grade English/Language Arts. Of those four, the pass rate was lowest for 9th grade English/Language Arts (39%) and consistently rose for each subsequent grade level to finish at 59% for 12th grade English/Language Arts. See Table C3.
In Mathematics, Geometry, Algebra II, and Algebra I were the virtual courses with the highest enrollments. The pass rate across the top ten most enrolled-in virtual mathematics courses ranged from a low of 33% for Algebra 1 – Part 1 to a high of 64% for Consumer Math. See Table C4.
Biology, Chemistry, and Earth Science were the three course titles responsible for more than 10% of the virtual enrollments in Life and Physical Sciences courses. A quarter of all Life and Physical Sciences virtual courses were taken in Biology. Biology also had the lowest pass rate (45%) along with Physical Science of those in the top ten; the highest was Physics at 59%. See Table C5.
For Social Sciences and History, the three course titles of U.S. History – Comprehensive, Economics, and World History – Overview each yielded more than 10% of the virtual enrollments. Pass rates for the top ten most enrolled in courses ranged from a low of 43% in Modern World History to a high of 74% for Psychology. See Table C6.
Thirty AP courses were taken virtually in 2017-18. AP Psychology was the most popular course accounting for 17% of the 3,735 AP enrollments. Over half of the virtual AP courses were taken by Michigan Virtual students. The pass rate for AP courses taken virtually was 86%. See Table C7. The pass rate for non-virtual AP courses taken by virtual learners was 93%.
Subject Area Enrollments by Locale
Course enrollment patterns were consistent across locales. For instance, Mathematics represented between 16% and 18% of the virtual enrollments for all (rural, town, suburb, city, and not specified) locales. The range was also 2% (12% to 14%) for Life and Physical Sciences and 4% in English Language and Literature. See Table C8. Pass rates in virtual courses also varied across subject areas and locale. For instance, in English Language and Literature, pass rates fell between 37% for not specified schools to 55% for rural, suburban, and town schools. In Mathematics, pass rates ranged from 28% (not specified) to 53% (suburban). See Table C9.
Subject Area Enrollments by Student Sex
Males and females enrolled in subject areas in similar proportions. For the four highest enrollment subject areas, the proportion of enrollment from males and females was within one percent of each other. Pass rates did, however, show more variability by student sex; in most cases, females outperformed males – a trend that has been consistent with past years. See Table C10.
Courses by Virtual Method
Schools classified the virtual courses into one of three methods: Blended Learning, Digital Learning, or Online Learning. See page 413 of the Michigan Student Data System Collection Details Manual Version 1.4.
- Blended Learning – A hybrid instructional delivery model where pupils are provided content, instruction, and assessment at a supervised educational facility where the pupil and teacher are in the same physical location and in part through internet-connected learning environments with some degree of pupil control over time, location, and pace of instruction. For a course to be considered blended, at least 30% of the course content is delivered online.
- Digital Learning – A course of study that is capable of generating a credit or a grade that is provided in an interactive internet-connected learning environment that does not contain an instructor within the online environment itself. There may be a teacher of record assigned to the course, but this teacher does not provide instruction to students through the online environment. For a course to be considered online as opposed to blended, all (or almost all) the course content is delivered online.
- Online Course – A course of study that is capable of generating a credit or a grade that is provided in an interactive internet-connected learning environment, where pupils are separated from their teachers by time or location, or both. For a course to be considered online as opposed to blended, all (or almost all) the course content is delivered online.
Blended Learning enrollments accounted for 7% of the virtual enrollments and had a pass rate of 55%. Digital Learning totaled 9% of the enrollments with a 55% pass rate. Online courses represented the majority of the enrollments (83%) and yielded a pass rate of 55%. See Table C11.
Students
Fast Facts
- 112,688 K-12 students took at least one virtual course which represents 7% of Michigan public school students.
- 86% of virtual learners were in high school; 33% were seniors and 21% were juniors.
- 49% of virtual learners passed all their virtual courses. Twenty-three percent of virtual learners did not pass any of their virtual courses.
- Of the 26,462 students who did not pass any of their virtual courses, 42% took only one or two courses. Almost 12,000 students took and did not pass five or more virtual courses with more than 3,000 students taking and not passing 11 or more virtual courses.
- For part-time virtual learning, Michigan Virtual students were the most successful, even when considering their higher non-virtual performance.
- Female students had a higher pass rate (57%) than did males (53%).
- Students in poverty made up the majority of virtual learners (57%) and virtual enrollments (66%). Students in poverty also had a lower pass rate (49% v. 69%).
- Students using special education services made up 12% of the virtual learners.
- Pass rates were higher for students taking fewer virtual courses. Students taking one or two virtual courses had a 76% pass rate compared to 51% for those taking five or more.
- White students represented 68% of virtual students; African-Americans were 17%.
By Grade Level
For the 2017-18 school year, 112,688 Michigan K-12 students, approximately 7% of students in the state, took at least one virtual course. This was an 11% increase in the number of virtual learners compared to what was reported for 2016-17. Only about 6% of the state’s virtual learners were in grades K-5. Grades 6-8 were responsible for about 9% of the virtual learners. High school grade levels generated 86% of the virtual learners. Over 33% of virtual learners were high school seniors and more than 21% were juniors. See Table D1.
By Student Sex
There were slightly more females (56,928) enrolled in virtual courses than males (55,789), though from a percentage perspective, each represented about 50% of the population. Females had a 4% higher pass rate (57% compared to 53%), continuing the trend seen in past years of females outperforming their male counterparts on this measure. See Table D2 and Table F8.
By Race/Ethnicity
White students made up 68% of virtual students with African American students totaling the second highest percentage with 17%. Asian students had the only pass rate (69%) above 60%. See Table D3 and Table F9.
By Poverty Status
Fifty-seven percent of virtual learners were classified as living in poverty. This is about 7% higher than the percentage of K-12 students statewide who were eligible for free or reduced lunch (50%) in the fall of 2017 2017 (see the Fall State Free and Reduced Lunch Count file for the 2017-18 school year). Students living in poverty took 66% of the virtual enrollments for the year. This is 4% higher than the percentage of virtual enrollments from students in poverty in the 2016-17 school year. The pass rate for students in poverty (49%) was 20 percentage points lower than students who were not in poverty (69%). See Table D4 and Table F10.
In addition to the performance gap between those in poverty and those not in poverty, there were also differences in non-virtual pass rates. Virtual learners in poverty had a 70% pass rate in their non-virtual courses, 21 percentage points better than their virtual pass rate. Interestingly, students not in poverty had an 87% pass rate in their non-virtual courses, an improvement of 18 percentage points over their virtual pass rate. Thus, students in poverty had a larger performance gap between their virtual and non-virtual pass rates than did students who were not in poverty. See Table D5.
Differences were apparent by virtual type. Seventy percent of Full-Time learners were in poverty compared to 58% of Part-Time (Non-Michigan Virtual) learners and 27% of the Part-Time (Michigan Virtual) learners. The pass rate for Full-Time students in poverty was 46% compared to 50% for Part-Time (Non-Michigan Virtual) and 68% for Part-Time (Michigan Virtual). See Table D6.
By Special Education Status
Students using special education services made up 12% of the virtual learners and 13% of the virtual enrollments. These percentages are similar to the statewide percentage of students using special education services (13.1%) for the 2017-18 school year (see the 2017-18 Special Education Data Portraits: Disability Snapshot). Students using special education services had a virtual pass rate of 48% compared to 56% for those who did not. See Table D7 and Table F11.
By Non-Virtual Course Performance
Part-time virtual learners with at least three non-virtual courses were classified into one of three categories based on their success in those non-virtual courses. The three categories were:
- Passed all Non-Virtual Courses
- Did Not Pass 1 or 2 Non-Virtual Courses
- Did Not Pass 3 or More Non-Virtual Courses
In total, 63% of students had at least three or more non-virtual enrollments. Of that group, 49% of students passed all their non-virtual courses, 22% did not pass one or two, and 29% did not pass three or more. There were clear differences in virtual pass rates between the three categories. Students passing all of their non-virtual courses had an 86% virtual pass rate. Students who did not pass one or two non-virtual courses had a virtual pass rate of 62%, and those with the lowest non-virtual success had a virtual pass rate of only 39%. See Table D8.
There were also differences for these three groups by virtual type. Part-Time (Michigan Virtual) learners consistently had higher virtual pass rates (89%, 73%, and 49%, respectively) compared to the Part-Time (Non-Michigan Virtual) learners (85%, 61%, and 38%, respectively). See Table D9.
By Virtual Course Performance
Forty-nine percent of virtual learners passed every virtual enrollment they took. Twenty-three percent did not pass any of their virtual enrollments, and 28% passed some, but not all of their virtual courses. Students who passed all of their virtual courses were responsible for 31% of the virtual enrollments. Students with mixed success generated 48% of the enrollments, and students who did not pass any of their virtual courses contributed 22% of the virtual enrollments. See Table D10.
For the students who did not pass any of their virtual courses, 42% only took one or two virtual courses. On the other hand, 11,839 students did not pass five or more virtual courses, and a staggering 3,005 students did not pass 11 or more virtual courses. Further analysis of students failing all of their 11 or more virtual courses showed that 1,437 came from Full-Time PSA cyber schools; thus, about 9% of virtual learners in PSA cyber schools took 11 or more virtual courses and did not pass any of them. Over 500 of the full-time LEA schools were in this group representing 6% of the students attending such schools. About a thousand students in this group were reported by part-time virtual schools. Just shy of 500 students were using special education services (16%) and slightly fewer than 2,500 of these students (83%) were in poverty. See Table D11 and Table F12.
What Table F12 makes clear is that for students who do not pass any of their virtual enrollments, “withdrawns” and “incompletes” were rampant. For the virtual enrollments from students who did not pass any of their virtual enrollments, 54% had a “Withdrawn” status (exited, failing, or passing) and another 17% were classified as “Incomplete”. For those taking 11 or more virtual courses, 54% had a “Withdrawn” status and 19% were marked “Incomplete”. In each case, only about a quarter of the virtual enrollments were actually classified as “Completed/Failed”. Please see the section on Pass Rate Calculations for more elaboration on the impact of such issues on pass rates.
By Virtual Usage
Generally speaking, virtual learners did better when they took fewer virtual courses. Students taking one to two virtual courses had a pass rate of 76% compared to a pass rate of 63% for those taking three to four virtual courses and a pass rate of 51% for students taking five or more virtual courses. Almost half of students fell under the description of taking one or two virtual courses; however, 41% were found to have taken five or more virtual courses during the year. See Table D12.
State Assessment
Fast Facts
- 49% of 11th grade virtual learners who took the SAT were proficient in the Reading/Writing component. About a quarter tested proficient in Math.
- Higher proficiency rates were seen with higher non-virtual performance and with students who were not in poverty.
- Students taking virtual courses with Michigan Virtual had the highest levels of proficiency on the standardized assessments.
By Subject Area
State assessment data can be used to provide an independent measure of student performance. Based on SAT and M-STEP data from students in 11th grade, virtual learners showed lower percentages reaching proficiency on the Evidence-Based Reading and Writing (SAT), Mathematics (SAT), and Social Studies (M-STEP) examinations than the statewide proficiency rates. Just under half of the 11th grade virtual learners tested proficient in Evidence-Based Reading and Writing and about a quarter were proficient in Mathematics. See Table E1.
By Non-Virtual Performance
As would be expected, the percentage of virtual learners testing proficient on these state tests varied considerably when taking into account their non-virtual performance. For instance, students taking a minimum of three non-virtual courses and passing all of them had proficiency rates that exceeded the statewide average for each of tests. Students who did not pass one or two of their non-virtual courses and those not passing three or more of their non-virtual courses had much lower rates of proficiency. See Table E2.
By Poverty Status
Students in poverty consistently recorded proficiency rates that were 30% lower than their peers who were not in poverty. As an example, 32% of virtual learners in poverty scored proficient on the Evidence-Based Reading and Writing exam compared to 66% for those who were not in poverty. See Table E3.
By Provider Type
Students taking virtual courses with Michigan Virtual had the highest rates of proficiency on the assessments, exceeding the state average on all examinations. Part-Time (Non-Michigan Virtual) learners had rates that were higher than those from the Full-Time type. See Table E4. When considering the non-virtual performance of students, the Michigan Virtual students consistently outperformed the Part-Time (Non-Michigan Virtual) type by twenty percentage points or more. See Table E5.
Maps
Berrien, Eastern U.P., Lapeer, and Tuscola ISDs/RESAs had at least 15% of students in their service areas take a virtual course in 2017-18. In total, there were 17 ISDs/RESA with 10% or more of the students taking virtual courses – an increase of five over the prior year. See Figure 2.

One in five students attending a PSA cyber school resided within the Wayne RESA service area; non-resident status data was available for all but one PSA cyber school. The Macomb ISD service area was the only other area with 1,000 or more students attending PSA cyber schools. Genesee, Kent, Ingham, and Oakland ISD each had between 500 and less than 1,000 students from their area attending PSA cyber schools. See Figure 3.

Conclusion
This year’s report represents the eighth year of data on the effectiveness of virtual learning in Michigan’s K-12 system. Many trends witnessed in past years continue to exist. See Table 1. The use of virtual learning as evidenced by the number of virtual learners, virtual enrollments, and schools with virtual learners continues to grow. At the same time, performance in virtual courses has been trending downward, though flattened out this year.
School Year | # of Virtual Learners | # of Virtual Enrollments | # of Schools | Virtual Pass Rate |
---|---|---|---|---|
2010-11 | 36,348 | 89,921 | 654 | 66% |
2011-12 | 52,219 | 153,583 | 850 | 62% |
2012-13 | 55,271 | 185,053 | 906 | 60% |
2013-14 | 76,122 | 319,630 | 1,007 | 57% |
2014-15 | 91,261 | 445,932 | 1,072 | 60% |
2015-16 | 90,878 | 453,570 | 1,026 | 58% |
2016-17 | 101,359 | 517,470 | 1,102 | 55% |
2017-18 | 112,688 | 581,911 | 1,158 | 55% |
While the overall pass rate remains a reason for pessimism, the data also indicate reasons for optimism. Almost half of virtual learners passed all of their virtual courses and a quarter of schools with virtual learners had school-wide virtual learning pass rates of 90%-100%. Unfortunately, such successful implementations of virtual learning are outnumbered by poorly performing programs. There remain many kids—too many—having little to no success with virtual learning. Almost a quarter of students did not pass any of their virtual courses with close to 12,000 students taking at least five virtual courses and passing none of them.
The data in this report represent an opportunity for schools and educational stakeholders to have critical conversations about what is working and for whom it is working, and what is not working and under what circumstances those results are occurring. MVLRI has created many resources that can assist schools in reflecting upon and improving their virtual programs. These resources include an expanding series of practical guides designed for students, parents, teachers, mentors, school administrators, and school board members. MVLRI has also worked with multiple Michigan schools to provide quality reviews of their online learning programs. More information about online program review opportunities is available on the MVLRI website.
Appendix A – Methodology
About the Data
The data for this report came from the following sources:
- Michigan Student Data System – School Year 2017-2018;
- Educational Entity Master (EEM);
- Michigan Student Data System Teacher Student Data Link (TSDL) – Collection Year 2017-2018;
- Michigan Virtual Student Enrollment List – School Year 2017-2018 (Supplied by Michigan Virtual); and
- Michigan’s K-12 Virtual Learning Effectiveness Report, 2016-17 – Used for comparing this year’s data with the 2016-17 school year.
Because the data for this report incorporates this variety of sources, the findings within may differ from those found through the MI School Data portal which may use different query parameters.
The majority of enrollments classified as virtual in this report were treated as such due to the TSDL virtual method field indicating virtual delivery. However, this field is known to contain inaccuracies. For the purposes of this report, additional methods were used to identify enrollments with a high likelihood of having been delivered virtually. Each of the methods used, along with the percentage of enrollments it contributed to the total, are outlined below.
- TSDL Virtual Method Flag = Yes. Enrollments where the TSDL virtual method field was set to “Blended Learning,” “Digital Learning,” or “Online Course” were treated as virtual. According to the TSDL Data Collection Manual, the virtual method field “indicates the type of virtual instruction the student is receiving. This could be virtual learning, online learning or computer courses; distance learning; or self-scheduled virtual learning” (See page 413 of the Michigan Student Data System Collection Details Manual Version 1.4). This strategy yielded 99% (573,604) of the virtual enrollments.
- TSDL Local Course Title Field References Michigan Virtual. The strategy of searching the local course title field for common references to Michigan Virtual yielded less than 1% (621) of the virtual enrollments. The wild card search criteria for Michigan Virtual consisted of the following: ‘%MI Virtual%’, ‘%Mich Virt%’, ‘%MIVHS%’, ‘%MIVS%’, ‘%MVS%’, ‘%MVU%’, ‘%VH’, ‘%MVHS%’, ‘%MIVU%’, ‘%VHS%’, ‘MV%’, ‘%MV’, ‘%Michigan Virtual%’, ‘%IS: MV%’, ‘%IS:MV%’, ‘%MI Virt%’, ‘%MV HS%’, ‘Virtual HS%’, and ‘Mich. Virtual High School%’.
- Cyber School Enrollments Not Marked as Virtually Delivered. Less than 1% (1,903) were enrollments reported by cyber schools that were not marked as being delivered virtually.
- Local Course Title Field References Common Third Party Providers. Searching the local course title field for common references to known third-party providers of virtual courses yielded less than 1% (2,457) of the virtual enrollments. The wild card search criteria for common third-party providers consisted of the following: ‘%Apex%’, ‘APX%’, ‘%Aventa%’, ‘%BYU%’, ‘%Brigham%’, ‘%Compass%’, ‘%Edgen%’, ‘%2020%’, ‘%20/20%’, ‘%20-20%’, ‘%E20%’, ‘%Edison%’, ‘%FLVS%’, ‘%FVS%’, ‘%GenNet%’, ‘%Gen Net%’, ‘%K12 Virtual%’, ‘%K12:%’, ‘%K12vs%’, ‘%Lincoln Int%’, ‘%Little Lincoln%’, ‘%- Lincoln%’, ‘%(Lincoln)%’, ‘%Lincoln’, ‘%UNL%’, ‘%Middlebury%’, ‘%Nova net%’, ‘%Novanet%’, ‘%Odyssey%’,‘%Odware%’, ‘ODY%’, ‘%(OD%’, ‘%Edmentum%’, and ‘%Plato%’.
- TSDL Local Course Title Field References Common Generic Labels for Online or Virtual Learning. Searching the local course title field for common references to online, distance, or virtual learning yielded less than 1% (3,326) of the virtual enrollments. The wild card search criteria for common generic labels for online or virtual learning consisted of the following: ‘%Online%’, ‘%On-line%’, ‘%On line%’, ‘%onl’, ‘%onli’, ‘%onlin’, ‘%- OL’, ‘%-OL’, ‘%O/L%’, ‘OL %’, ‘%STW%’, ‘%E-Learn%’, ‘%E-LRN%’, ‘%Virtual%’, ‘%- virt%’, and ‘%- DL’.
Michigan Virtual Students
If a non-cyber school flagged a student as having at least one virtual enrollment with Michigan Virtual, all virtually delivered enrollments for that student were flagged as being provided by Michigan Virtual. It is worth noting that not all of the virtual enrollments from these students were delivered by Michigan Virtual, but there was no clear way to determine which of the virtual enrollments were not from Michigan Virtual. Therefore, this report attributes all virtual enrollments from these students to Michigan Virtual.
Pass Rate Calculations
For this report, the pass rate was calculated based on the values recorded in the “Completion Status” field. For more information about the Completion Status field, including definitions for each status, see page 407 of the Michigan Student Data System Collection Details Manual Version 1.4. Column one of Table A1 displays the various statuses reported by schools for the virtual enrollments.
Completion Status | # of Enrolls | % of Enrolls |
---|---|---|
Audited (No Credit Issued) | 5,392 | 1% |
Completed / Failed | 82,583 | 14% |
Completed / Passed | 321,270 | 55% |
Incomplete | 51,717 | 9% |
Ongoing Enrolled | 5,094 | 1% |
Testing Out | 105 | 0% |
Withdrawn / Exited | 66,286 | 11% |
Withdrawn / Failing | 16,520 | 3% |
Withdrawn / Passing | 32,944 | 6% |
Total | 581,911 | 100% |
Throughout this report, the pass rate calculated simply represents the percentage of virtual enrollments with a status of “Completed/Passed”. Notice that the percentage of enrollments with a “Completed/Passed” status in Table A1 matches the statewide pass rate. This pass rate formula remains consistent with past reports. Please keep in mind that calculating the pass rate in this manner will result in the lowest possible percentage.
To illustrate why this is, consider the completion status of “Audited (No Credit Issued)”. These virtual enrollments are not “failures” per se; however, including these enrollments in the total counts adds to the formula’s denominator without impacting to the numerator, the effect of which is to lower the percentage of other completion statuses including “Completed/Passed”. Another example is enrollments with a completion status of “Incomplete”. About nine percent of the virtual enrollments in this report were classified as “Incomplete”. As such, they are treated in the report’s pass rate formula as zero passes, even though some may eventually be awarded a passing status. Finally, it is unclear how to best treat enrollments with a “Withdrawn” status. For instance, 6% of the virtual enrollments in 2017-18 were marked as “Withdrawn/Passing,” meaning that the student was passing the course at the time the student was withdrawn. Should these enrollments be counted as failures? What about students whose enrollments were marked as “Withdrawn/Exited” (11% of the virtual enrollments)? There is no way to determine whether that exiting occurred in the first few weeks of class or the final weeks of class. The data do not provide insight into whether the student was reenrolled in a different course or whether it was too late for reenrollment in a credit-bearing opportunity for the student.
The research team raises these issues because they represent questions for which there are no definitive answers. In the end, the team decided to report the pass rate as the percentage of all virtual enrollments that were reported as “Completed/Passed”. To provide readers with better idea of the impact of this approach, additional data tables are provided in Appendix F to allow interested readers in drawing their own conclusions and calculating their own formulas for many of the pass rates reported.
Data Limitations
Because of the methodology described above, some enrollments are counted as virtual in this report that should not be – either because they were mistakenly marked as virtual by the school and/or because the local course title searches implemented by the research team yielded false positives. On the other hand, it is also safe to assume that some enrollments that should have been marked as virtual were not, both because they were not correctly flagged by the school and because the local course title did not give an indication of its virtual nature that aligned with the conventions used in the strategies outlined above. Consequently, the figures in this report should be treated as estimates that, generally speaking, convey the trends observed for the school year.
One final caveat for interpreting the results published in this report: There is clear variability in what schools report to the state as a “course.” Some records align well with reporting conventions outlined by the U.S. Department of Education under their School Codes for the Exchange of Data (SCED). However, a review of the data suggests that many schools submit course records that may be better described as course units or lessons. Hence, while one district may report a single course for a child, for instance, Algebra I, another school might submit five such records, all with the same subject areas and course identifier codes, but with different local course IDs. Table A2 provides a glimpse into such reporting variability. Consider the part-time schools. For that group, 47% of the students had 11 to 15 courses reported (including both virtual and non-virtual enrollments), but five percent of part-time students had more than that. This issue is pointed out to alert readers that not all courses likely represent a semester- or trimester-length unit. Overall, however, such “over-reporting” seems to have more of an impact on enrollment counts than on the pass rates reported.
