LEXINGTON, Ky. (Feb. 12, 2020) – The University of Kentucky continues to make higher education more available and accessible to people throughout Kentucky, across the nation, and around the world. Kathi Kern is UK’s Associate Provost for Teaching, Learning, and Innovation. Since 2010, Dr. Kern has served as the director of the Center for the Enhancement of Learning & Teaching (CELT), working to establish the University as a center for international faculty development.  She is now working to expand the university’s teaching mission into a virtual space with ‘UK Online.’

On this week’s edition of “Behind the Blue,” UKPR’s Carl Nathe visits with Kern to bring us the latest information about ‘UK Online,’ the opportunities provided by new technologies and virtual environments, and how to best bring UK to the students who can’t come to campus.
