My colleague, Sheri Rawls, and myself gave this presentation at the 2010 Creating Futures Through Technology Conference in March. We spoke about the e-learning initiative The University of Southern Mississippi has undertaken to increase student and faculty satisfaction in our online programs as well as improve enrollment, retention, and graduation rates. This is an ongoing project that will continue to improve our online programs. The project included 5 main workstreams: Faculty Development, Course Development, Change Management, Scheduling, and Financial Model. Through a partnership with Blackboard, we have been able to grow our online programs and ensure a satisfying experience for our online students.
