Dear Parents and Prospective Students:
Online learning at CDU may surprise you!
What you will find is a learner-centered experience. You have the luxury of choosing where and when to study. You have the pleasure of learning in the comfort of home. In addition, you have choices about the way you learn. Some courses offer audio lectures that can be downloaded to a CD or IPod; many courses offer the printed text of your professor’s class lecture that you can print and review, and a transcript of all class discussion. Your comments can be edited multiple times before you commit them to text. At CDU you take time to think more deeply.
The Dean of Students teaches Academic Skills—reading, writing, research, time and space management—throughout your program to ensure your success. You have access to faculty through email and a help desk.
CDU has a real campus in cyberspace where you talk with real people like yourself from all over the world -- Australia, the UK, United States. You can share a virtual cup of coffee in the Café or pray in the virtual Chapel. Every course has a lively discussion area to interact frequently with classmates and professor. Even the Dean of Students and President engage in lively conversation with students.
Our inspiring programs rich in magisterial teaching, our carefully selected faculty, and dialogic model of adult learning are modeled on the pedagogy of Christ. We look forward to welcoming you to the CDU Family.
Yours in Christ,
Marianne Evans Mount
