Differentiating Online from Remote Education

The rapid shift colleges and universities made from face-to-face to online programming in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic has given rise to a new program type: “remote” learning. These courses don’t leverage online best practices, but instead were rapid responses to a world-wide shutdown designed to keep students, faculty, and staff safe. This webcast will explore the fundamental differences between remote and online learning and reflect on what's needed to clearly communicate those differences to a skeptical market.
Special Guests: 
A. Sasha Thackaberry, VP for Digital and Continuing Education, Louisiana State University
