IWU gives students access to video-based online courses

Starting in October 2021, students studying at Indiana Wesleyan University’s Marion campus will all have institutionally sponsored memberships to Campus Unlimited. A Campus Unlimited membership provides IWU-Marion learners with access to a pre-approved catalog of video-driven, online courses featuring award-winning faculty from across the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities.

The purposes for the project are three-fold. First, in keeping with IWU’s mission, institutional leaders wish to provide a faith-integrated, affordable alternative to the external course options students currently choose to complete and transfer into their degree programs.

Second, institutional leaders wish to learn more about the extent to which in-person learners desire online options. Leaders will closely monitor students’ levels of satisfaction with the courses as well as their performance in subsequent coursework. Both factors will influence the potential for expansion or continuation of the program.

Finally, one of the objectives of the Campus Unlimited program is to help our partner institutions create a more sustainable business model for instruction without sacrificing quality and satisfaction for students. After a trial period, a careful analysis will be conducted to determine whether expansion is in the best interest of learners and faculty.

“College students value the flexibility afforded by high-quality online learning,” said Indiana Wesleyan University President, Dr. David Wright, when commenting on this innovative partnership. “By providing every IWU-Marion student with a membership to Campus’s faith-based, engaging course options, we hope to address a variety of scheduling needs and modality preferences that we are seeing among students. These courses are professionally produced and authored by highly respected faculty from Christian colleges across the US. We are excited about the prospect of collaborating with other Christian institutions to make these outstanding Christ-centered courses available to IWU students.”

The course development team at Campus has partnered with faculty experts, instructional designers, and creative personnel from across the country to launch video-driven courses for a new generation of learners. IWU continues to meet the needs of new generations of learners by providing greater choice and flexibility while maintaining a steadfast focus on developing students of character, scholarship, and leadership.
