Predictions and Realities
Louisa Fordyce, Kaplan University, Saltsburg, PA, USA, lfordyce@kaplan.edu

Online learning, as a relatively recent development in education, developed and evolved at an astounding rate in the last years of the twentieth century and continues to evolve in the twenty-first century. When online classes were first available, many predictions were made as to how online classes would be delivered and how this would affect educators. Andrew Feenberg, on the forefront of online education, made a number of predictions as to how online learning would change as more institutions offered distance-learning education. Feenberg’s points included methods of delivery as well as the effects distance learning would have on faculty.
