Bridging the Gap--Online and Offline Learning - Jim Kiggens, Syllabus

Cerro Coso Community College serves this 18,000-square-mile stretch of mountain, desert and valley communities. It is one of the largest community college service areas in the U.S., with a population base of over 85,000. The school has five on-ground instructional sites. A sixth site, its online campus, is the largest in terms of enrollment. Cerro Coso delivers 12 associate degrees online and over 250 distance learning courses a year. Since 2001, our Academy of Media Arts has offered online degrees in digital animation and Web design. Studying digital animation remotely can be challenging, to say the least. Learning to work as an artist is all about critique. If you’re not teaching in a traditional classroom, you need a practical way to post a student’s work so that other students can comment and react to it.
