Online Learning Initiatives at Northwestern
Northwestern University has recently formed a work group to advise the Provost on issues related to the development and implementation of distance learning opportunities at the University. Through active engagement with the schools, faculty colleagues and other groups across campus, this group will help ensure that the core teaching, research, and service mission is at the center of all distance learning initiatives undertaken by the University.
