Wong, M. (2008) Why online education works! UBC’s e-Strategy Newsletter, November 6
Professors reflect on how teaching fully online distance courses helps their on-campus classes.
(This is my old department where I was Director – now absorbed into the Office of Learning Technologies. It’s nice to see an acorn grow into an oak, as when I arrived in 1995, there were no online distance courses – my main objective was to move them all online. It only took 13 years!)
