A NEW WAY TO LEARN

Remember those old correspondent classes that use to be advertised during late night TV? Well in the last decade a new form of online education has arrived: E-Learning 2.0. In 2006, 3.5 million students were participating in online learning at institutions of higher education in the United States, with an average increase of 14% each year since. And with the recent explosion of higher education enrollment, many being the 50 million working American adults who have not finished their college degree, online enrollment will increase even more. Some experts believe that college-level E-Learning may eventually be more popular than brink-and-mortar institutions, whose lecture-style learning hasn't had a real change in how it works for almost 500 years. However, E-Learning uses the latest training methods aside the most up-to-date technologies; this is not your parent’s online schooling; it’s the future: now!

My new class: Instructional Design & Delivery

Well folks, I am on my third week of Instructional Design & Delivery and I am thinking that I may have found my niche. I still want to teach, especially American History, but if I cannot do that right away, I would definitely be interested on designing e-learning courses. Wish me luck!
