I highly recommend this program for anyone who would like to learn the theory and application of instructional technology in education.

The projects we did in class had real-world application and prepared me for my new job as technology coordinator in my school district. You won't be disappointed.

I have been very impressed with every class I had in this program. The courses were challenging but manageable. The Instructors were always available via email or by phone.
