eLearning
The departments of Instructional Technology and Distance Learning have fallen under the same Dean for several years. However in the last few months, movement toward a joint effort at the state level has encouraged us to make the union official. eLearning encompasses the spirit and body of both Instructional Technology and Distance Learning allowing our faculty and staff the opportunity to utilize the resources of both departments with minimal effort. The purpose of Instructional Technology and Distance Learning is to support the instructional technology needs of faculty and students. This is accomplished by providing instructional technology resources through traditional media services and expanded computer-based instructional support. Distance learning services coordinate and administer the development and delivery of Internet based courses.
