WCET Post on Distance Education Misconceptions

By Phil Hill. Posted on March 19, 2014

It is gratifying to see WCET pick up the mantle with their analysis of distance learning based on the new IPEDS data. They have several posts up already, and today’s post is quite good and important. If only more people jumping into the fray on higher education history and reform would start with a grounding in […]

Twice as many institutions as previously reported have no online courses

By Phil Hill. Posted on January 23, 2014

Recently I pointed out that the widely-quoted Babson survey on online learning estimates 7.1 million US higher ed students taking at least one online course while the new IPEDS data indicates the number as 5.5 million. After looking deeper at the data, it appears that the difference in institutions (whether or not an institution offers any […]

New IPEDS Data: A graphical view of online ed by state and by sector

By Phil Hill. Posted on January 23, 2014

New IPEDS Data: State by state online ed comparison / public institutions

By Phil Hill. Posted on January 14, 2014

It’s Tuesday, so it must be time for my daily post on the new IPEDS data including online education. There are so many ways to slice this data that just was not possible before, and with a little spreadsheet engineering, I’m finding it easy to come up with new views. Today let’s look at the adoption of […]

New IPEDS Data: Profile of online education in US / Fall 2012

By Phil Hill. Posted on January 13, 2014

Last week I mentioned how the National Center for Educational Statistics (NCES) and its Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) are now providing preliminary data for the Fall 2012 term that for the first time includes online education. Let’s look at a profile of online education in the US for degree-granting colleges and university, broken out by sector and undergrad / […]
