Virtual Challenge: Creating Quality E-Courses

This event is scheduled for Tuesday, January 25, 2011, 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. Eastern time. There's a lot more to building online courses than digitizing text and adding a few videos. Online course designers are learning more about how to incorporate quick assessments that personalize the learning experience for students, how to keep students’ interest with video and simulations, and how to integrate gaming into their courses. The lessons being learned by course designers are significantly changing the way a successful online course is created for today’s students. Presenters: Greg Marks, Director of Product Development, Michigan Virtual University Debi Crabtree, Coordinator of the Hamilton County Virtual Schools, Chattanooga, Tenn. Moderator: Michelle Davis, Senior Writer, Education Week Digital Directions
