Want to take a college course? Study online - Barb Berggoetz, Indianapolis Star
Hoosiers are signing up for online college courses in record numbers as students flock to expanding Internet degree programs. An estimated 28,000 students took courses online, by cable, videotape or even DVD -- called distance learning -- in 2003-04. That equals about 10,000 full-time students, slightly above the enrollment at the University of Southern Indiana and only about 1,000 fewer at the University of Notre Dame. "There is a large untapped market still out there when you think of the adults who don't have a postsecondary education," said Susan Scott, director of e-learning for the Indiana Higher Education Telecommunications System.
