The goal is to extend to off-campus students the unique resources of the University. UTK has more than 1,000 students enrolled in video distance learning courses. Selected courses and degree programs are offered via advanced voice and data interactive cyberclass technology over the Internet and are available to individuals.
Students meet electronically on a regular basis, using multimedia computers and the Internet.
A digital interactive video network links group video interactive classrooms in Tennessee and is capable of connecting to similar sites throughout the country. Groups of students participate in graduate courses at these sites. UTK also offers individuals a program of graduate engineering courses on videotape. A VCR is the only equipment needed for the videotaped courses. Additional courses are being revised and will be delivered interactively and online.
