Hello colleagues, I've been hearing about programs that are requiring HSE students who enroll in face-to-face classes to also take an online component. The rationale for this requirement, as I understand it, is at least two-fold: 1) students need to devote more time to achieve their HSE goals, 2) students often need to enhance their technology skills to be successful on the HSE test and for future study and/or work.
Is your program requiring that HSE students enroll in an online component? How is this working so far? Please share the details with us here.
What do members think about this approach? What are the down sides, if any?
Are there ESL programs who are looking into this as an option? What might be important aspects to consider?
Cheers, Susan Finn Miller
