K-State posts online videos about distance education

MANHATTAN -- Kansas State University is making it easier to find out what it's like to take a course online.

K-State's Division of Continuing Education has developed two online videos that help explain how KSU distance education works and how to succeed in taking courses online.

"What You Need to Know about K-State Distance Education" is a 10-minute video that offers a detailed description of the benefits and ease of taking courses at a distance. The video also includes commentaries from distance education professors and students.

"How to Take a Distance Education Course from K-State" is a 5-minute video that gives an overview of the different technologies used for delivering distance education courses.

The videos can be viewed at the Division of Continuing Education Web site, http://www.dce.k-state.edu/distance/videos.shtml.
