UVALDE, Texas, Sept. 12, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Southwest Texas Junior College—a public community college serving as a regional "open door" institution in an 11-county area that stretches from the Texas Hill Country to the US-Mexican border—today announced an ambitious new initiative to enhance its online offerings and greatly increase the number of online courses and certificates available to students in rural Texas. In collaboration with Dallas-based instructional design firm iDesign, the college has developed a suite of new online courses spanning STEM, humanities, social sciences and more.

Key Points:

"This is about leveraging technology to close the digital divide and meet the needs of the rural learners and communities of Southwest Texas.
Statewide, rural Texas students graduate high school at a higher rate than their urban peers, but only 28% of rural high school graduates have college degrees compared to 41% of those in urban areas.
To help the college greatly increase its capacity to deliver courses online, the Instructional Design Support Center (IDSC) provides faculty with real-time access to instructional design and online teaching support.
"Texas community colleges are setting a new standard for how rural colleges can deploy online and digital learning to help students gain access to good-paying jobs near the communities they call home."
