The organizing committee of the International Online Conference on
Teaching Online in Higher Education would like to announce the 2003 online conference on Teaching Online in Higher Education (TOHE). The focus of this year's conference is on merging online classes into the mainstream. Contrary to initial expectations, online classes are often taken by traditional students with scheduling problems, family responsibilities or work constraints that interfere with traditional
class schedules. Consequently, existing infrastructure may not
sufficiently accommodate the flood of students taking online classes. This year we want to
take a special look at what problems currently exist in how students
enroll in online courses, how they are served by support services, and how faculty teaching online courses fit into the system. If you are aware of particular problems that exist in your
infrastructure or you are working within one that is particularly
suited for online courses, we want to extend a special invitation to you to submit a proposal to present a paper and chat with conference participants online this November.

Suggested topics include:

* Institutional Infrastructure
o Admission/Registration Procedures for Online Students
o Accommodating Conflicting Needs Between Offices
* Online Academic Programs
o Development
o Implementation
o Advertising
* Student Support Services for Online Students
o Needed Support/Service Systems
