In turn, instructors not only are accessible and responsive, but they also are tasked with regularly assessing the quantity and quality of students’ submissions, and implementing policies that ensure their students are only getting credit for doing their own work,” the magazine’s editors noted.
“The strongest online degree programs for a masters of CIT also have a corresponding ABET-accredited undergraduate program and make it easy for students to interact with classmates as well as instructors.”
