Many of Sacramento States students dont have to come to the campus to go to school—they just turn the television on or boot up the computer. The University offers a variety of ways for students to take their classes at home, work or on the run through its Distance Education program.
The program began 12 years ago by televising classes on low-power UHF stations that reached various parts of Sacramento as well as outlying communities. Today the University offers courses in several formats. Students can still catch them on television, watch them live on the Internet, wait until a more convenient time and access the courses archives on the web site for the lecture, or check it out from the library.
A lot of our students find the ability to see the lecture at a time of their choosing as quite an attractive feature, says Jean-Pierre Bayard. He not only oversees the Distance Education operation as director of Academic Technology and Creative Services, but was also one of the first Distance Ed instructors.
