Seeking a distance education interview subject
June 13, 2007
So who says higher education isn’t flexible? After a long chat with my prof via AIM chat (his preference, not mine!) we decided that as opposed to creating a bland presentation (read: Powerpoint file) as as response to a text chapter (found here http://cde.athabascau.ca/online_book/ch16.html) he said I could find someone who was involved in distance education (course designer, instructor, etc) and interview him or her.
Here are the requirements…
1. You’d have to read the chapter.
2. You’d have to let me interview you via Skype, preferrably video skype and record the conversation (with video, I hope!)
3. You’d have to let me publish it in my course and probably blog here just for kicks.
So, any takers?
Somebody?
Anybody?

I’ll be interested… I’m starting a distance learning course on ICT provision in schools anyway and this looks like to might fit into my learning, and be useful to me anyway. What’s the time frame?

Time frame is pretty quick. Would you mind taking a look at the chapter I mentioned and see if it strikes you?

Will take a look, but having reread your post, you’re after facilitators and instructors, of which I am neither. I’m interested but probably not the guy you want.
Just entusiastic…

Happy to help. I’ve taught distance education courses for several years now and will be moving to a new university in August, focusing on using technology in teaching journalism and performance arts. One claim to fame — I was part of the team that formed North Carolina’s first accredited, fully DE, BA degree in communication. If you need more background, just let me know.

Choose ProfG, choose ProfG! I’m won’t be offended.:)

If ProfG doesn’t meet your needs, I’d be happy to help.
