Teaching Online in Higher Education Online Conference Call for Proposals

The focus of the 2003 Teaching Online in Higher Education online conference is on merging online classes into the mainstream. Contrary to initial expectations, online classes are often taken by traditional students with scheduling problems, family responsibilities or work constraints that interfere with traditional class schedules. Consequently, existing infrastructure may not sufficiently accommodate the flood of students taking online classes. This year we want to take a special look at what problems currently exist in how students enroll in online courses, how they are served by support services, and how faculty teaching online courses fit into the system. If you are aware of particular problems that exist in your infrastructure or you are working within one that is particularly suited for online courses, we want to extend a special invitation to you to submit a proposal to present a paper and chat with conference participants online this November.
