Content:
Speaking to the paradox of online learning, the book explains that, although the great promise of online education is expanded access and greater equity--especially for traditionally underserved and hard-to-reach populations, like lower-income students, working parents, first-generation students, and students of color--the current gap between online and face-to-face retention means universities are falling far short of this promise.
