Office of Digital Learning

Our Mission

The mission of the Office of Digital Learning is to accelerate the development of degree, advanced certificate, and non-credit online programs at Teachers College. We recognize that e-learning has become an important part of education for K-12, Higher Education, and lifelong learning and, therefore, work to support faculty in expanding their teaching toolkits with new digital teaching strategies and techniques backed by research and informed by practice. Through our efforts we aim to expand the reach of Teachers College beyond its walls.
