E-learning during the summer courses

I wish the day when SQU provide its summer courses through the using of
E- Learning.
I mean instead of coming to SQU daily routine during the hot summer semester, SQU can make use of E-learning in a way that gives the students more flexibility not to attend every single lecture, but instead attend the crucial ones and the tests.

What do you think?

How can I see the participations

Hello all,
Due to some enquiry regarding the way one could view the participations for a certain topic, I provides here
Here some useful explanation.
First and all you need is to press on the topic that you want to see its participations. These topics are located on the left side "BLOG ARCHIVE"
just press on the topic you want to view and enjoy participating.


Does it help?
I am here if you need any more inquiry.

Technology improving distance learning

January 13th, 2011
B.A. Morelli, Iowa City Press-Citizen
Advances in technology are helping expand and improve the quality of distance education in Iowa. Today, the virtual distance education classroom includes automatic voice- and motion-activated 360-degree or double-mount video cameras, and software that presents visual, audio, slideshow presentations, real-time instructor notes and personal space for student notes on the student’s desktop computer screen. “The teacher can walk around the room and the camera follows,” said Ron Kral, University of Iowa’s instructional development and Web services manager. Some of UI’s high-tech classrooms have about $25,000 worth of technology in them.
