Schools use online classes - Michele Steinbacher, Pantagraph
The popularity of online education is pushing many colleges to expand Internet course offerings, but Central Illinois campuses are choosing their own pace. In 2002, a record 1.6 million college students took online courses, according to a Babson College and Sloan Consortium study. Sloan describes itself as a group of nearly 400 "institutions and organizations committed to quality online education." At Illinois colleges and universities, enrollment in online courses jumped 45 percent from 2002 to 2003, said Iris Stovall, director of Illinois Virtual Campus.
