The University of Georgia is diving into a new era of online learning this summer with a slate of new undergraduate courses. UGA has taught a limited number of online courses and degree or certificate programs for years, but this summer, the university will teach 34 courses popular with or required of undergraduates. The university has lagged behind many other schools in moving into online learning, but now the school has made developing a stronger online curriculum a top priority, said UGA instruction Vice President Laura Jolly. UGA started a new Office of Online Learning in July to begin beefing up its online offerings, and then asked UGA faculty members to propose potential courses. The courses offered this summer are the result.
