When Eduprise representatives visited the campus, it was clear the company's solutions would be driven by the educational objectives JHU set forth. Included are online bulletin boards, course content, such as lessons, discussion groups, assignment-submission and links to case studies and outside resource materials. The total structure provides a truly interactive, learner-centered approach to online instruction. As of the spring 2001 semester, five Whiting School courses were available completely online, with more in the works. Also under consideration is an online degree program in environmental engineering.
Discussions are underway regarding the use of a standardized course management system across campus.
Particularly interested in the Whiting School's solutions are Hopkins' distance learning programs in the fields of medicine, business, and arts and sciences. It's unlikely that we'll be able to continue maintaining a hodge-podge of different tools and vendors across the campus. Inc. Copyright 2001 Eduprise. All rights reserved.
