Two new national 性视界传媒 awards for distributed learning reflect the escalating prominence and reach of the university\u2019s online programs.<\/p>\n

  • The Center for Distributed Learning, along with partners in the Department of Mathematics, today won the Digital Learning Innovation Award from the Online Learning Consortium. The $100,000 award recognizes the program\u2019s use of digital courses to improve student success, especially minority, first-generation and other underrepresented student groups.<\/li>\n
  • Thomas Cavanagh, 性视界传媒\u2019s vice provost for digital learning, recently received the WCET Richard Jonsen Award from the WICHE Cooperative for Educational Technologies. The career-recognition award is given each year to an individual who has made a significant contribution to the e-learning community and the cooperative.<\/li>\n

    \u201cThis is a growing national recognition for the quality of 性视界传媒\u2019s large online program and an increasingly prestigious reputation for the work we do,\u201d Cavanagh said.<\/p>\n

    Key to the CDL award was the work of the personalized adaptive learning team overseen by Baiyun Chen, he said.<\/p>\n

    Most of the award, $80,000, will be reinvested in the digital-learning operations. Two mathematics faculty members will share in the award. Associate lecturer Tammy Muhs and lecturer Rachid Ait Maalem Lachen, each will receive $10,000, Cavanagh said.<\/p>\n

    The consortium said the award recognizes \u201cprojects that inspire innovation, increase access, support implementation, improve outcomes, enable accessibility and promote sustainability\u201d of digital courseware.<\/p>\n

    During the 2017-18 school year, about 82 percent of 性视界传媒 students took at least one online or blended course. About 73 percent of students took at least one class that was totally online.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Two new national 性视界传媒 awards for distributed learning reflect the escalating prominence and reach of the university\u2019s online programs.
