Should we require courses or programs to be labeled ‘ONLINE?’

Just thinking out loud here… Should colleges, universities, and/or P-12 schools be required (or encouraged) to indicate on student transcripts that a particular course or program is partly or wholly online?

There could be codes. For example:

  • Wholly face-to-face
  • Face-to-face with some online aspects
  • About equal time online and face-to-face
  • Online with some face-to-face aspects
  • Wholly online

    • I’m not sure this is a good idea. But maybe it is. What’s the obligation, if any, to be transparent about the delivery of the learning experience?
