This report is the DLL's first attempt to tabulate and analyze the data about student enrollments in "distance education" (DE) courses that was compiled by the IPEDS Data Center (U.S. Department of Education) for the first time for the Fall 2012 semester. Indeed, the Fall 2012 data was the only "distance education" data that IPEDS has published on its website as of July 2014..This report only considers enrollments in DE courses offered by HBCUs. Subsequent reports will place the patterns observed in the HBCU data into the broader context of patterns found in the online enrollments of all of the nation's accredited colleges and universities.
(Note: This report will be updated soon to consider more recent IPEDS data and related data from the Babson surveys.)
