WHITE PAPER: Getting Online Students to the Finish Line

This 13-page white paper from BlackBoard and EducationDIVE is a great little read that summarizes ways for administrators, course designers and faculty to encourage student success in their online courses.


I LOVE the quote from page 11 that reads, "[T]echnology isn't a silver bullet but it can make the day-to-day of faculty easier". I've said this for years to faculty who have asked me how it is to teach online. There are easy things about using technology for sure, but on the other hand, there is more work to stay engaged with students because of the lack of face-to-face interaction.

This white paper by Blackboard (popular LMS creator) and EducationDIVE (education news source) gives some really practical ways to retain online students. I've discussed many of these ideas here on this blog for the past year.
