ONLINE DEGREES LET YOU ADVANCE YOUR CAREER WITHOUT MISSING A BEAT

In math, as in life, there’s never just one way to arrive at the right answer. It’s why a flexible, learning-centred approach to education just makes sense.

We've just released 5 video modules to help adults who are thinking about going back to school part-time or online.  No matter what stage of the journey you're at, there is something for everyone who wants to continue their education.

The modules cover:

Are you a mature student who is curious about getting a university degree, but not willing or able to attend school full-time?  Your choices and options can be very confusing.

We want to help, so we're hosting two webinars geared to adult learners to help you understand the process, what's required and how part-time and online studies work.

Join us on Oct 22 or Oct 26 and learn what everything you need to know. We'll  have people online to answer any of your questions.

Experiential Learning using Riipen

Instructors, are you interested in incorporating an experiential learning opportunity into your online or on-campus course next term? You should consider taking part in Waterloo’s Riipen pilot project.  Riipen is a micro-experiential learning platform facilitating connections among students, educators, and industry partners such as local companies, community organizations, government agencies and Non-Government Organizations.

The Technology Enabled Seminar and Showcase (TESS) is eCampusOntario’s annual conference where we celebrate achievements in online and tech enabled teaching and learning. 

This year the conference and content is designed around the Evolution of Teaching and Learning.
