This week, Education Dive examined how a pilot program at Maryland's Prince George's County Public Schools is working to better integrate humanities into different school curricula, including the STEM fields.

Also in K-12, KIPP Public Charter Schools are exemplifying how branding is key in a school choice environment, and a new report from WalletHub suggests more spending doesn't always lead to higher quality while providing another ranking topped by Massachusetts.

Meanwhile in higher ed, interest in online programs is on the rise as traditional programs continue to see declines, and enrollment growth is likely to look different than before if it picks back up.
