DIGITAL LEARNING EXPERIENCES IN 2020

December 30, 2018

The recent fiscal climate and massive funding cuts proposed in the education budgets have hit universities hard.

Universities are forced to balance their dwindling budgets by reducing faculty and limiting course offerings – inadvertently reducing the quality of education they provide. Most state-run institutions look to source funding from tuition rather than Govt appropriations. The US has witnessed a 96 percent increase in per-student tuition revenue – shifting the burden from states collectively to students and parents individually.
