Students will work closely with the CEO of the company in order to stay focused on the project research goal. Successful students will need to be able to research online and in person. Using their network, student will need to be able to conduct interviews, look for research papers online and find any pertinent information regarding online learning. Students will be asked to summarize their findings in a report. They must also take part in training for teaching online and be able to discuss which techniques they would like to try and to also learn from the CEO and other effective teachers at the company.
