Online Learning: Maturing? Perhaps. Improving? Always. - John Ebersole, Forbes

Online education isn’t what it was thirty years ago. Heck, it isn’t what it was three years ago. I bring up these examples not to argue that online education is perfect – but rather to underscore its immense progress and the innovations that have both occurred and will continue to occur over the decades to come. I can’t wait to see where it will be a decade from now, though MOOCs provide a glimpse.We may not be there yet, but to contemporary critics I’ll just say: “You’ll see.” http://www.forbes.com/sites/johnebersole/2012/09/24/online-learning-maturing-perhaps-improving-always/
