The marriage of technology and learning is here to stay according to Dr. Nelson Orta. It’s imperative to never stop learning in the realm of technology, and that is what brought Nelson to the Ph.D. program in Learning Technologies. Nelson chose the distributed program and says he enjoyed the mix of both synchronous and asynchronous learning tasks combined with the yearly doctoral face to face meetings, the first at which he learned that the Ph.D. program was not a sprint and that it required grit and determination.
