Radford University is continuing the trend of other colleges across the country by taking steps to offer more online classes. There are 31 distance education courses being offered this spring and 43 that were offered this past fall. This is a dramatic increase when compared to the two offered in the fall of 1999. With revolutions in digital technology increasing at an exponential rate, many are not surprised by RU’s interest in looking into online alternatives. Charles Cosmato, Interim Director for RU’s Center for Innovative Teaching and Learning, explained his intention to offer more online classes while at the same time maintaining their academic quality and integrity. CITL is a division of RU devoted to designing and incorporating new multimedia platforms for developing more effective educational environments.
