How has Penn State’s World Campus
changed since 2000?
What are its current needs?

Genesis of Distance Education at Penn State
Attribution and thanks: Many of the points I make in the next pages are derived from the website, blog, and presentations of Cole Camplese, World Campus designer/faculty member.

New design approaches:
• Richer media
• Increasingly active and collaborative learning – Web 2.0 trends
– Synchronous and asynchronous communities

Current and planned implementations of “Digital Commons”
![Page 9: How has Penn State’s World Campus changed since 2000? What are its current needs?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815e6b550346895dcce97a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
“Digital Commons”to offer 82,000 students a common platform
and high-end digital audio and video equipment

Student body is mostly “digital natives”

Effect on World Campus
![Page 13: How has Penn State’s World Campus changed since 2000? What are its current needs?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815e6b550346895dcce97a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
How goes the commitment to faculty development and support?
![Page 14: How has Penn State’s World Campus changed since 2000? What are its current needs?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815e6b550346895dcce97a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Faculty continue to learn
![Page 15: How has Penn State’s World Campus changed since 2000? What are its current needs?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815e6b550346895dcce97a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
But still feeling “behind the curve”
• Key ideas in this blog post (from yesterday) – Committed to cause of
online learning– Want to work with
developers– Always playing catch-up
with technology– Once new tools are
explained, faculty have “something to offer” about how to use them
![Page 16: How has Penn State’s World Campus changed since 2000? What are its current needs?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815e6b550346895dcce97a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Current learning design issues
• Design issues are same: make achievement of learning greater than technology
• “How to” is “shattered” by new social networking software and other fundamental ways we use the web
![Page 17: How has Penn State’s World Campus changed since 2000? What are its current needs?](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070420/56815e6b550346895dcce97a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Active Blog for Designers
• In this blog:– One designer sees that
online teaching practice lags behind students and technology
• Note:– Active sharing of design
issues among the IDD (instructional design and development) group within World Campus

Formal website for design issues

One designer’s angst
“In the world of the web back then, it seemed OK to build courses that were page turners – really just textbooks on the web with a few interactive (Flash) activities thrown in. Today that just seems wrong and the team on Friday came to that conclusion. If we are going to build a model for eLearning that we are proud of, then we are going to have to think very differently about how we go about doing this.”

So……how Penn State’s World Campus sees its design solutions to distance education has changed… …with the times…

…one thing hasn’t changed:
its focus on lifelong education for an information society*
