Abstract:
While online courses are gaining more acceptance and attendance in them is growing, there are still some misconceptions regarding online courses and how to sustain quality education through the course. In this paper we discuss two keys to sustainability, course design and delivery. Tips about how to create and sustain effective, quality online courses, from both the student and teachers perspective will be presented. Also, fables and fiction associated with online teaching and course delivery will be addressed.
