7.1 million of higher education students are taking at least one
online course.
The 6.1 % growth rate represents over 400,000 additional students
taking at least one online course.
The percent of academic leaders rating the learning outcomes in
online education as the same or superior to those as in face-to-face
instruction, grew from 57% in 2003 to 74% in 2013.
The number of students taking at least one online course continued
to grow at a rate far in excess of overall enrollments, but the rate
was the lowest in a decade.
Dr. Sorin Adam Matei on 23 Apr 09We invite you to submit a proposal for the 15th Sloan-C International Conference on Online Learning: "The Power of Online Learning: Opportunities for Tomorrow." The conference strongly encourages proposals that reflect the implications for the field of specific e-learning experience and practices. Proposals that address blended learning, issues of diversity, international applications of online learning, open educational resources and/or social networking are especially encouraged. Last year's conference attracted over 1100 participants to more than 180 presentations, as well as exhibits, pre-conference workshops, keynote and plenary addresses, and a variety of other special events.
