If you want to “slow” your horse
at the walk, jog or lope, try this easy, effective exercise. As you walk along, ask your horse to half-pass to the left each time the horse begins to pick up his pace. You don’t have to go far..... |
As I See It! Well, it’s about time…..and “congratulations”. It’s amazing how slow our “institutions of higher learning” are to catch on to change. In a most archaic way, the vast majority of US colleges and universities were less than complimentary about distance learning, and in most cases downright degrading. Well, now it seems the light bulb has gone on in the darkened halls of the ivy covered walls. MOOCs (massive open online courses) are taking the education world by storm and top universities are clamoring to participate, according to a USA Today report by Mary Beth Marklein. “The industry has operated more or less along the same business model and even the same technology for hundreds of years,” says John Nelson of Moody’s Higher Education. “MOOCs represent a rapidly developing and emerging change and that is very very rare”, Nelson tells USA Today. Moody’s report says online education has the “potential to revolutionize higher education”. No kidding? We’ve been saying that since 1999. What the brick and mortar, slow to move, colleges and universities are discovering is that the material they are teaching in the classroom can be taught in the family room and it doesn’t losing any of its value. What we have learned in developing equine study courses for www.HorseCoursesOnline.com is that the anatomy of a horse doesn’t change just because you are reporting it online rather than behind a lectern. What we’ve also learned is that we can have “experts” with proven records of success in the fields they teach because we don’t have to have them on campus. HorseCoursesOnline.com has 17 faculty members; 5 of whom are the trainers of world champion horses. No other college or university equine science program can make that claim. In fact, in most cases, traditional faculties are made up of people who have never had to make a living within the horse industry. Online offers not only equal educational information (the care and training of a horse is the same whether taught on a physical campus on the computer) but it offers it faster, more conveniently and more affordably. Congratulations to the elite institutions helping reduce the stigma of distance learning, not because they are so enlightened, but because they’ve suddenly found that it can generate revenue sources above and beyond tuitions, such as advertising and licensing. Money moves mountains. Well, I don’t care if their motives aren’t based in an effort to improve education, what I care about is that no matter what their motives, students are going to benefit, our nation is going to benefit and the world is going to benefit. Some dean somewhere must have gotten a “smart phone” and discovered e-mail. The marvels of modern technology! |
