This fall Schreiner University students will have a whole new way to learn. eLearning, the university’s schedule of online courses, will make its debut at Schreiner with retail management and international marketing courses. Dr. Charles Torti, assistant professor of business administration, who originated the idea of bringing eLearning to Schreiner, said other courses would be added in the future. “eLearning is structured to be user friendly,” Torti said. “It consists of the student inserting their eLearning course CD into a personal computer, reading the course syllabus, reviewing assignments, and reading and studying the assigned chapters.” The course CD will also include lectures by Mark Woodhull, instructor of business administration, who will be teaching both courses. “Students will have the flexibility to view and listen to lectures as it fits their schedules,” Torti said. “They can also repeat the material as much as necessary to match their individual learning pace.” Woodhull said eLearning is a good fit into the unique faculty/student culture

at Schreiner, where there is a 12:1 teacher/student ratio. “We are excited about the arrival of eLearning as one of our many educational tools at Schreiner University,” Woodhull said. Torti said for now the eLearning courses would only be offered to juniors and seniors. “The eLearning classroom is merely an additional media for student learning, with the goal of complimenting Schreiner University’s educational values,” Torti said. He added that another benefit of eLearning is it eliminates the possibility of a class being canceled due to insufficient enrollment, since online courses don’t have an enrollment requirement. “There is the possibility of a onestudent class,” Torti said. In the end, these courses will offer Schreiner students another way to receive a quality education, while allowing them the flexibility that eLearning provides.
