Online classes need upgrade - Editorial Board, the Triangle
Technology is all about enhancing the distribution of information. It makes information more available and more accessible for everyone, including students. Technology is embraced in the classroom and has a major impact on the learning experience, especially at Drexel. The University has been pushing departments and professors to begin using online portals like BB Vista and Blackboard. Some classes are now a mix of face to face meetings and online discussions, while others are now offered completely online. In today's age of Internet ubiquity, this new trend makes sense. The concept of creating online classes may sound like a good solution to the scheduling problem. It removes the need for a classroom and specific times and gives students flexibility to schedule around other classes or other activities.
