Interview with Curt Bonk

by | Monday, March 08, 2010

My friend and colleague, Curt Bonk, Professor at Indiana University (also known as Travelin’ Ed Man) recently interviewed me about our new hybrid Ph.D. program. For those interested in the program (and maybe even those who are not) can read it by going to Want an E-Ph.D. in Ed Tech?: An E-nlightening interview with Punya Mishra from Michigan State University. Curt asked some good questions thus providing me an opportunity to talk about this new program within the broader context of how technology is changing higher ed.

Enjoy.
