Hundreds of academics and institutions criticize the Department of Education's proposed regulations for online courses as outdated and imposing burdens on professors and colleges.
Critics highlight that the new attendance policy requires students to regularly engage with professors or peers, but lacks clarity on how institutions must report attendance.
While intended to accurately track student retention and prevent misuse of federal financial aid, the proposed regulations are seen as overly burdensome and misaligned with modern learning environments.
The majority of feedback during the comment period focused on the new attendance policy's feasibility and potential impact on the online education landscape.
