What's Online Learning Really Like?
The Chronicle‘s Goldie Blumenstyk has covered distance education for more than a decade, and during that time she’s written stories about the economics of for-profit education, the ways that online institutions market themselves, and the demise of the 50-percent rule. About the only thing she hadn’t done, it seemed, was to take a course from an online university.
But this spring she finally took the plunge, and now she has completed a class in government and nonprofit accounting through the University of Phoenix. She shares tales from the cyber-classroom — and her final grade — in a podcast with Paul Fain, a Chronicle reporter.
