Graduate Studies
Some graduate schools are making it easier for working professionals to earn advanced degrees by offering distance education programs. [|Pepperdine University] offers a unique Master of Arts in Learning Technologies (MALT) program that combines distance learning with a cohort model to offer a supportive learning environment. Comprised of students from all over the country, the MALT program offers a collaborative learning experience through the use of synchronous and asynchronous learning tools. Students can connect and communicate with one another across the states, country, or globe using tools including wikis, forums, blogs, and real-time chat sessions using [|Skype] and [|EtherPad]. With the inclusion of three face-to-face sessions equally spaced throughout the program, students are able to put faces and personalities with voices and develop deeper, more personal relationships with both their professors and their peers.
