Wk 1 Blog Reponse to Louria Anne Macon blog

One of the first use of technology in distance learning was radio. “In the years between the World Wars (1918-1946), the federal government granted radio broadcasting licenses to 202 colleges, universities, and school boards (Nasseh, 1997)”. However by 1940 there was only one college-level credit offered by radio and it did not attract enrollment. I missed this one. I am clearly, from this assignment, learning the definition of virtual. The radio indeed is one of tools that qualifies as a virtual medium if used for learning. Also, the one college course being offered by the radio is excellent. I am going to take this information to my students. Good Job Louria Ann.
