Luddites vs. cautious pioneers
The biggest Luddites are some administrators still stuck in the talk & chalk pedagogy. We had a couple on our board of trustees and had to bring them up to speed.
Most of my faculty colleagues understand that online instruction can be done well or poorly. We have seen many examples of both, but have reduced the latter through better selection, training, and evaluation.
My conclusion is that online instruction may involve modest cost savings (e.g., construction of physical classrooms & parking lots, HVAC, student services) but remain relatively labor intensive. In other words, to do online right, there should be fewer students in the classroom, not more.
In other words, the MOOC of one professor designing automated materials for a million students is no more realistic than were the hopes for the telecourses of the 1950s.
