Charles Ford speaks on 'Realities of Distance Education' to Florida Rotary Club

Charles W. Ford, Ph.D., Professor of Health Sciences, Westbrook College of Health Professions, addressed the Rotary Club in Port St. Joe, Florida, on the 'Realities of Distance Education,' on March 22, 2011.

Dr. Ford's address was based on some of his experiences in teaching on-line courses at UNE since 1993 in both the College of Health Professions and the College of Arts and Sciences.  Dr. Ford addressed an audience that was relatively inexperienced with on-line education and, therefore, he included some of the research studies that are of particular interest to parents and grandparents.  Dr. Ford's courses presently are in Health Services Management and in the Doctor of Physical Therapy program.
