I’m sure at UF, over a thousand students want to take one of those two classes, every fall and spring. At a public university (this isn’t a $50K+ a year in tuition private school) it simply makes sense to teach it in a large lecture. Taking large lectures and turning them into online classes to deliver the lecture also makes sense.

Kids these days prefer watching a lecture online vs sitting in a large lecture hall with 200 other students. Having a few of these types of online classes as Freshman/sophomores, also makes it a lot easier to get the schedule you need and stay on track for graduation.

UFOnline (and the state of Florida) has put a lot of $ and time into developing these classes, and it shows.
