The fundamental reason of ever increasing college costs

@prof2dad Did you see today’s Chronicle? “The Cost That Holds Back Ed-Tech Innovation”

The single greatest cost of the course redesign that I watched was the faculty instructors (or “subject-matter experts,” as they’re often referred to), who spent hundreds of hours planning and designing all of the new content.

Basically, it takes a lot of hours to redesign a course to be taught online, and even when the redesign is finished, faculty still have to be hired to teach.
