Uf now has an online EdS degree for anyone interested - http://www.distancelearning.ufl.edu/degrees.aspx?d=specialist
Thanks for heads-up. Do you -- or anyone else -- know of any other online Ed.S. programs at public or non-profit institutions? Particular areas of interest for the Ed.S. include educational/instructional technology, instructional design, reading/literacy education, or educational leadership. Any direction would be appreciated. Thanks, lesann
Northwestern State University http://www.nsula.edu/ece/degreeprogs/ed.html is completely online, accredited, and works out to about $4,000 for the entire degree.
Nova Southeastern University offers Ed.S degrees http://www.schoolofed.nova.edu/fgshome/degree_programs.htm
Nova Southeastern University and Liberty University offers Ed.S degrees http://www.schoolofed.nova.edu/fgshome/degree_programs.htm http://www.liberty.edu/index.cfm?PID=8757
The University of Missouri at Columbia (MIZZOU) offers an online EdS in Educational Technology: http://sislt.missouri.edu/edspec.php I looked very carefully at the UF program and the one at MIZZOU. Both, IMO, are a good value considering that they are good research (named) universities. The UF program is more research oriented than the MIZZOU program, but the course availability at the MIZZOU program is just great. There are only two required courses, the rest are electives. They are offered once a year, but there are literally 15-20 electives offered each term, as well as offerings during the summer. You could definitely complete this program in a calendar year. Unlike the UF program, there is no in-residence requirement for the MIZZOU program.
I agree. Nova Southeastern University and Liberty are the best for this program. You can check this resource: Online Education Specialist Program Hope it helps you
The University of Nebraska at Lincoln offers online ed.s programs. If courses are not available online, UNL allows you to transfer credits from other universities. http://extended.unl.edu/gradprograms/programs_degree.shtml
