On Tuesday evening, October 25, RTT 200 (Introduction to Radiation Therapy) will be taught live across three National University campuses (Costa Mesa, Sacramento, San Diego) using Smartboard technology. This event will usher in a new era of distance learning for National University and SHHS. Smartboard provides us with the capacity to teach live across muitple campuses and other locations in a modality that is as close to a traditional on-site class as possible. The use of Smartboard will also allow us to enroll students living in rural areas in our specialized health and human services degree programs. Moving forwad, expect to see Smartboards become increasingly popular in SHHS classes.
