- How can a student on one campus BENEFIT from taking courses in which the lead faculty member is based on a distant campus? Too distant for that student to participate in any face-to-face meetings?
- How can a few colleges or universities each benefit from collaborating to enable their own enrolled undergraduates to take some of each others' courses?
- online
- from the same campus as the lead instructor
- from other campuses?

Good questions. I wonder why one could not just "shop around for the classes one needs and then apply them to a school for the granting of a degree? NOTE: From Accredited schools
ReplyDeleteThe student would have a home school (similar to the home room in K-12) and take what he needed there but go out for courses not offered at his home school.
I wonder why a program limits the amount of classes one can transfer into the school?
Should we ask "what can faculty do to ensure that students taking a course online don't feel disenfranchised? There is advice out there such as "Tips for Establishing a Rapport with Online Students" from Faculty Focus (2009). Wouldn't faculty training in this area help?
