We are pleased to announce Dr. Barry Creamer has been named our Dean of Distance Education!  He will coordinate our online courses and will assist the Provost in helping faculty prepare courses for Distance Education offerings.

Distance Learning courses will be offered in three different ways:

 

Live Active Classes

Live Active Classes are offered at specially equipped  off-campus locations.  Students on the main Dallas campus and in the remote site interact with each other and the professor in live video conferencing.  Except for the location of the classroom, there is minimal difference between taking the class on campus in Dallas or at a remote location.

 

Recorded Active Classes

Students enrolled in Recorded Active Classes will watch recordings of class lectures rather than attending class.  Recordings will be available the day after they are given in class.  Students will complete all requirements for the course as students enrolled in the on-campus class.

 

Recorded Perennial Classes

Courses will be available online for students to take completely distinct from active classes on campus.  These courses will help students with schedule and travel conflicts as well as provide students the opportunity to get advanced standing before coming to the campus.

 

Though our program is in its formative stages, please be assured that every effort is being made to make multiple classes available as soon as possible.

If you have additional questions or concerns, please contact Dr. Barry Creamer, Dean of Distance Education.
