The Promise, Challenges and Lessons Learned in Delivering Online Soil Science Courses at the Oklahoma State University.

Online classes have accorded convenient course access to off-campus students and scheduling flexibility to those who are in-campus. The Department of Plant and Soil Sciences at the Oklahoma State University has adopted this method of delivery in the Research Methods in Plant and Soil Sciences, the Soil Nutrient Management and the Soil and Water Conservation courses. This poster will share our experience in delivering these courses online via Adobe Connect®, the promise of this method, the challenges we have dealt with, and some feedback from our students about the online delivery.
