CSU forging smart partnerships in online studies - the Coloradoan

CSU deserves a lot of credit for recognizing that the college student is changing. Gone are the days of every student being fresh out of high school; today, they’re joined by an increasing number of students who are both older and working off campus. This self-governing, self-motivated adult student taking classes remotely and getting a CSU education is becoming more and more common. CSU has embraced new styles of teaching through organizations that offer “massive open online courses,” or MOOCs. CSU's Global Campus is playing a front-and-center role by making professors and materials available to students all across the world at a price that is more amenable to folks who wouldn’t otherwise give a secondary degree a second thought. http://www.coloradoan.com/article/20121027/OPINION01/310270029/CSU-forging-smart-partnerships-online-studies?nclick_check=1
