EWU Dean of Distance Education to Serve on Chronicle of Higher Education Panel
On October 13, 2021 from 2:00 – 3:00 PM ET, Dr. Jean-Jacques Medastin, Dean of Distance Education and Learning Support Services at EWU has been invited to participate in a panel discussion on the need to pivot to online instruction, which EWC is preparing to do after Thanksgiving. Some of the topics of discussion for the panel will be (1) How will administrators and professors work together to ensure a positive experience for the students? (2) What features will be used to enhance the digital classroom to both benefit students and make it easier for instructors to move seamlessly between the online and ‘on-ground’ classroom?; and (3) As colleges learn in real time what approaches work best, what does it mean for online program and teaching in the future, especially as the prospect for better broadband and more affordable device improve access?
