Online Education May Be The Key To Improving College Graduation Rates

Educators all over the world, as in this recent story from the University of Tennessee, are using online college courses for a variety of reasons. One of those reasons is purely practical, and yet, hopeful: to keep students from dropping out. Officials hope that students who weary of a traditional classroom setting will turn to online courses, rather than leaving college entirely.

Especially targeted are students in the 'stopped-out' category:

Higher education officials wanting to raise Tennessee's college graduation rate are developing plans to help the "stopped-out's."

These are students who dropped out for personal or financial reasons but always wanted to go back. Some are lacking only a semester or two of earning their degree.


This absolutely seems to be an excellent possibility. Would you finish your college education online?
