dating back to 1964, but the article itself was published in 2009. The journal relates to the topic

and was published to the GVRL database which determines its credible

 article was useful because it described how the number of online education students were

rising, along with the new forms of communicating with students. The article can be determined

as credible because it was published in the journal of science and education, and the article was

found on a database.

The article is not peer reviewed, but the author cites 10 different references throughout. I

concluded that the article is credible; only because it was published as a NAMTA journal.

NAMTA is an accredited scholarly journal published on the ERIC database
