The Academic Senate's Committee on Teaching, in collaboration with the senate's Committee on Educational Policy, will host the third in a series of forums on online education later this month. The spring forum, “Online Education & UCSC: What's next?” will focus on the big questions surrounding online education:
• How will online education change the role of the professor?
• What are the risks to faculty in respect to intellectual property in offering online courses?
• How will online courses be assessed, and who will determine the measures for success? The panelists, below, will discuss these and many more questions.
The event will be held on Friday, April 26, from 3:15 to 5 p.m. in the Stevenson College Event Center.
Panelists include the following:
• Daphne Koller, co-founder of Coursera, professor of computer science, Stanford University
• Robert Meister, professor of history of consciousness, UCSC
• Rodney Ogawa, professor of education, UCSC
• Alison Galloway, campus provost/executive vice chancellor, UCSC
• Representative from the UCSC student organization "New School"
The discussion will be moderated by Lois Kazakoff, deputy editorial page editor for the San Francisco Chronicle, and UCSC alumna (Cowell 1976).
