Online education is becoming increasingly popular for both students and professors as the Internet creates new learning possibilities outside the traditional classroom
.
In fall 2003, about 750 students enrolled for online courses, compared to 605 in fall 2002, 520 in fall 2001 and 331 in fall 2000, Distance and Community Education Program Coordinator Sandra Gladney said. The number of course titles available has remained at 13 on average each year, but capacity has been expanded as professors feel more comfortable taking on more students and course sections are added, she said.
"I think that people are becoming more and more comfortable learning this way," Gladney said.
