This week, Education Dive looked at the push in some circles to ban Wi-Fi in K-12 schools. Though there's a lack of scientific evidence to back it up, the movement is fueled by some parents' belief that wireless Internet signals caused illnesses in their children.

Also in K-12, we began examining K-12's road toward a post-industrial public education model, referred to in some circles as School 2.0. In that transition, there are lessons and takeaways for administrators and policymakers beyond the public sphere, as our visit to Alexandria Country Day School in Northern Virginia, just outside of the District of Columbia, shows.

Meanwhile in higher ed, University of Wisconsin-Extension Dean David Schejbal discussed how CBE and culture are critical in serving non-traditional learners' needs. And on the tech front, virtual reality may be poised to transform several aspects of higher ed.

Be sure to check out our conversation with Panorama co-founder Aaron Feuer and more in this week's most-read Education Dive posts!
