Critical New Findings from the "Managing Online Education" Study
eLearning Development Efforts
Online education is booming, whether you measure it in terms of enrollment headcounts or the number of new online programs.
The changes are happening so quickly that many postsecondary institutions are struggling to catch up−and keep up−with them.
What’s missing is reliable, comprehensive data to inform institutional decision-making in the competitive and fast-changing field of distance education.
But change is here.
The groundbreaking 2009 National Survey of Online Education Programs provides the first-ever, national data on critical issues facing schools involved with eLearning.
Sponsored by The Campus Computing Project and WCET, this survey is focused on the instructional, organizational, and technological operations of online programs across all levels of postsecondary institutions.
Kenneth C. Green, Ph.D., from The Campus Computing Project and Russell Poulin from WCET deliver vital, benchmarking information to help distance learning and IT professionals compare their online programming with similar institutions in this category.
