Instructors are selected to participate in the program from across the university's ten colleges. Claris HomePage, Microsoft PowerPoint, and WebCT from University of British Columbia. WebCT is a program that incorporates chat rooms, a bulletin board system, student record management tools, quizzes, and glossaries. For all the emphasis on technology, Rocklin makes no bones about the fact that the program is really about education. No matter that Lesley University is located on the East Coast.
Students get together over the Internet.
In fact, the entire Master's program can be earned over the Internet. Lesley's School of Education prides itself on technology in teaching. Professor Nancy Roberts started its Technology in Education program 18 years ago. Just a year ago, the school went one step further and developed an online Master's degree program. The online program doesn't replace more traditional methods of earning a degree.
