I'm attending a conference about professional graduate qualifications at the moment, and one of the workshops I've elected to attend is about the role of online learning in graduate programs. Apparently they are going to discuss both online programs, and the emmergence of blended learning in graduate programs, so it should be interesting.
I'm going to take particular note of how online programs at graduate level gain acceptance in the wider academic and business community, and the way that they can be used to change career and build on prior experience of both learning and of work.
This stuff is about giving people the opportunity to change their lives, and once you put it into this context, it becomes not only exciting, but enormously important as well.
