Jed Friedrichsen

Because of his passion for providing all students rich, engaging learning opportunities, Jed traded his career of coaching debate for helping the University of Nebraska create the nation's first fully accredited online high school in 1995. Since then, Jed's initiatives provided training for teachers across the United States about using Internet content in classrooms, online communication and collaboration, fostering learning networks and aligning local curriculum and instruction to academic standards, and teaching in online and blended learning environments.
