<p>Anyone have any experience in this area? Would appreciate any advice or pros and cons.</p>
<p>I am in the middle of this myself. My traditional Masters of Ed program is in the process of switching to on-line. So while my first classes were in the classroom, now most of my classes are on-line, which seems weird since my university is literally down the road from my house.</p>
<p>Personally, I would prefer to go to classes but it’s just no longer possible in this area. I don’t think it really makes an difference to future employers.</p>
<p>It’s a little scary really because of the domino effect of many degrees headed that way, but it does make sense in some respects. It would make it easier for teachers who are just starting out not to have to commute to class after a day’s work. I think my D’s college is headed that way and are going to totally revamp the M.S.Ed program by the time she is done in a year or so.</p>
<p>Any experience with online degrees for MEd through Walden University or any similar online schools?</p>
<p>Walden is exclusively online and recognized as such. Some mainstream universities now have online degrees like this. I don’t know what area you want to work in. Check Lesley, also low residency programs like Union Institute or Goddard (Lesley also has these). Cambirdge College. State universities also.</p>
<p>I love online courses.</p>
<p>As an employer, I have real issues with online courses. I do not have confidence that tests are monitored.</p>
