and the University of Connecticut and How Material Provided
to Students in Classrooms Should Be Revised for Online
Students
Description/Objectives:
This workshop will focus upon the critical factors of
success for online learning programs.
The
Global Executive online M.B.A. program at Duke University
was headlined by Business Week magazine as the
"Hottest Campus on the Internet." To date,
over 600 executives around the world have obtained Duke's
prestigious online M.B.A. degrees. Nancy Keeshan is
a facilitator with years of experience in working with
faculty, students, alumni, and prospective students
in the administration of this amazing and courageous
undertaking in two online global M.B.A. programs and
online executive development programs from their inception
at Duke University. See http://www.fuqua.duke.edu/admin/gemba/index.html
Amy
Dunbar is part of the new wave of professors who teach
full-time for a university without having to leave home
except to perform nonteaching duties on campus. Dr.
Dunbar will explain how she consistently wows her students
online and will share virtually all of her taxation
teaching materials with registrants. A special feature
will be a demonstration on how she uses instant messaging
(free from AOL) to communicate in real time with students.

Bob
Jensen will provide an overview of successes and failures
in online distance education. He will then demonstrate
how course materials need to be modified when they are
moved from the students in the classroom to students
online. In particular, he will demonstrate an inexpensive
and highly effective piece of software called Camtasia
for making videos of live technical learning modules.
