About
Online Learning
IWUOnline programs deliver courses via the Internet using
a state-of-the-art interface design. The set up is easy.
Technical support personnel help students configure their
computers so that they become learning and communication
tools. This enables students to concentrate on course
concepts, rather than technical frustrations. Ongoing
technical assistance continues throughout the program.
IWUOnline offers students a "virtual classroom"
forum to interact with faculty and fellow working professionals
on a broad range of management issues. Internet resources
are used to supplement the student's knowledge. The user-friendly
interface combines web page discussion forums and e-mail
to facilitate interaction.
Indiana Wesleyan University believes strongly that the
more opportunities that students are given to communicate
openly with one another the more effective and stimulating
the curriculum becomes. Former online students have commented
that they were pleasantly surprised that they felt a strong
bond develop among the class members. They did this by
communicating through interactive online tools.
You may wonder how a facilitator can get to know you and
your work without actually seeing you. This comment made
by an online facilitator may ease your mind: "I can't
tell you what my students look like, but I know how they
think." Through assignments and online communication,
your facilitator will get to know you as will the rest
of the class. Your personality will show through in your
writing style, which will act as a signature of sorts.
Your thinking skills will be demonstrated time and again
as you ask and answer questions online and as you write
papers. Online courses offer an equalizing environment
where you are judged by your communication skills and
intellectual prowess. You are not judged by the color
of your hair or skin, or by the size of your clothing
or shoes!
