What is the future of hybrid & online learning at UMBC?
Join our roundtable for an active conversation
Location
Engineering : 102
Date & Time
November 8, 2017, 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
Description
One in four students take some of their courses online, and two-thirds do so at a public institution (Allen, Seaman, Pouline, & Straut, 2016). In early November, UMBC celebrates the 10th anniversary of National Distance Learning Week (NDLW) with a series of lunchtime conversations.
The University’s recent strategic plan calls for developing campus-wide policies and standards for the use of technology in instruction, which includes hybrid and online formats. How do we as a community codify and measure our values for hybrid and online learning through policies and standards? How do accreditation and assessment requirements impact hybrid and online learning formats? What future trends might influence the University’s current model of hybrid and online learning? Join our closing roundtable for an active conversation about the future of these alternate delivery formats.
