The debate continues. This is from InsideHigherEd and it refutes some of the studies in the Dept. of Ed's meta analysis. I don't think comparing online and face-to-face are particularly useful, but looking at outcomes is. Course construction and teacher competency in the online environment are critical to achieving good outcomes. But isn't that also true in the f2f classroom?

The webinar sounded great but I was unable to attend due to a previous commitment. Is it available for review anywhere? Also wondering if anyone has tried Digital Chalk. It seems more appropriate for CE distance learning than schools, but any thoughts on their service? (http://www.digitalchalk.com/)

I enjoyed the webinar. I hope that those who were there feel encouraged to jump in and learn how to use the technology and teach using electronic resourses.

Thanks to both Susan and Whitney for the webinar on Technology in the Classroom. I hope the conversation continues--there is much to learn. The only consistent thing about technology is change--it takes a village to keep up!

For all those that were on Susan's webinar on Technology in the Classroom, here are a few of the resources that I mentioned:

Sandy and Susan,

I'm knocking out an education column and would be interested in your experiences with the Elsevier support for this as well as any impressions on where this will (or should) take us in the future. Also happy to talk with either of you by skype, Google talk, or even ordinary phone. Thanks.

Describe how easy adding distance learning is when integrating courses that have been professionally done and are intigrated inot textbooks. Of course, I am only a little excited about this because of what Elsivier has supported for the Textbooks you and I write. It is just so easy.
