The COFA myth-busters: online education

29 November 2004

COFA academics Rick Bennett and Leong K Chan are busy busting myths about online education. Their internationally recognised work has just received national teaching and research awards from the Australian Council of University Art and Design Schools (ACUADS).

"If the result of the first decade of online education has been to raise a series of myths, insecurities and negative opinions, it must be the aim for the next decade to dispel them," the researchers argued at the recent ACUADS conference in a paper titled The Future has already happened: Dispelling some myths of online education. The paper was co-authored with Andy Polaine of the School of Media Arts.
