Abstract
In the
video and film program, we offer some courses in our multi-camera production
studios, editing labs, and a mobile production truck that, quite frankly, are
not built for online instruction. One challenge has been to convince faculty
that online offerings are necessary, and they benefit the students, the
faculty, and the institution, but they do not have to be offered in lieu of our
hands-on courses. I had already developed our 1080 Post Production I class for
online delivery based on the standards set forth in the division of MTSU Online
who dictate the criteria that online courses on our campus should meet.
However, I got the idea to now compare my MTSU online version of 1080 to the
standards set forth at our flagship institution, The University of Tennessee
Knoxville (UTK), to gain perspective on any strengths or weaknesses I may have
overlooked in an effort to help with show faculty how well the online version
had been designed.
