In "Online Education: Global Questions, Local Answers", 24 college
educators focus on the most important questions to be addressed by
all scholar-teachers and administrators committed to developing
high-quality online education programs. We describe these questions
as "global" because they transcend the particular situations of
individual institutions. They are questions that everyone involved
in online education needs to address: What are the issues to
consider when first developing and then sustaining an online
education program? How do we create interactive, pedagogically
sound online courses and classroom communities? How should we
monitor and assess the quality of online courses and programs? And
how should recent developments and innovations in online education
cause us to reexamine our roles and responsibilities as educators
in technical communication?While these global questions affect all
of us in one way or another, they demand different local answers,
such as those presented by the contributors to this text. Readers
will need to consider which of these local answers might apply to
their own situations and how these answers might need to be adapted
to reflect the particular needs of their own institutions.
The collection asks how faculty, courses, and programmes have
responded and adapted to changes in students' needs and abilities,
to economic constraints, to new course management systems, and to
Web 2.0 technologies such as social networking, virtual worlds, and
mobile communication devices. Addressing these questions it
includes contributing voices from a wide variety of post-secondary,
from urban and rural institutions and from technological and career
colleges.
