Virtual classrooms add convenience to a quality online education.
Balancing work and school can be demanding, but the online student experience at the University of Kansas helps students better manage this challenge. One of the greatest benefits of enrolling in an online graduate program is the flexibility it provides—you can complete your coursework on your own time, no matter where you are. The University of Kansas School of Education and Human Sciences offers this convenience without sacrificing the quality of your education. In our online graduate education programs, students will experience studying under the same award-winning faculty members and complete the same rigorous curriculum as in one of our on-ground programs, but you'll also enjoy a highly personalized classroom experience within a flexible program designed for working professionals.
To accomplish this, the University of Kansas School of Education and Human Sciences offers students like you a robust set of interactive tools that help keep you connected. Our online learning management system (LMS) and its interactive features are exceptionally effective and informed by the expertise that has led KU to be ranked one of the nation's top schools of education.1 You may not be face-to-face with your classmates or your instructors, but you'll still have plenty of opportunities to share your experiences, engage in discussions and dig deep into what you learn.
In addition to the course software shared by all our online students, we have commissioned custom technology to better enhance the overall online student experience. These tools virtually simulate a real school district and a diverse array of real students with different learning needs and allow you to digitally track your program progress through a novel interactive interface, all so that our online students can truly put what they've learned into practice. No matter which online graduate program you choose, KU's virtual learning resources will help you get the most out of your studies.
All students in our online graduate programs use KU Connect, which is available on home computers and mobile devices. KU Connect provides access to course videos and readings, and it allows students to experience interactive course materials any time of day, no matter where they are. But it's also far more than a database of coursework. Through KU Connect, online students can:
