TAKEAWAYS
Ken BaldaufFlorida State UniversityProgram in Interdisciplinary Computing
Takeaways• It’s the Wild Wild West of online education– dozens of approaches, frameworks, and
online tools are at our disposal.• No one solution meets the needs of every online class - class content, class size,
student demographic, teaching style, and institution type are all variables that combine to define the technology requirements of an online class.
• Content delivery, student activities, social interaction, and assessment are all becoming integrated into teacher-designed learning paths.
• The social and community aspects of online learning are the most challenging, but can also be more developed online than in a classroom – with the right system.
• Teachers and curriculum designers with advanced technology and computer skills have a distinct advantage in the online environment. Educating the educators is the most important aspect of launching online courses and programs.
