We do a virtual Public School. I teach some and my son has a teacher that lectures everyday through a live video chat. This gives us the benefit of both worlds(public school and homeschool). We get done with required core course work by noon. He and I are learning Mandarin and he is learning 2 musical instruments.
I find China interesting because they are so focused on their work. I think you would find schools in the US that would argue they don't have time to participate in the program for the same reasons. Difference being: Their students are actually learning something. Parents demand it. Local radio host on the radio said last week "Yeah, school is starting. Now they can deal with my child's crap." I personally would love to see more American Families demand that type of commitment from their schools.
