MCC Faculty Recognized for Outstanding Online Courses

Massachusetts Colleges Online (MCO) recently recognized two Middlesex Community College faculty members for outstanding course designs that best exemplify online education’s potential to enhance teaching and learning.

Mathematics Professor Aisha Arroyo and Chemistry Professor Beth Kelly were presented 2019 COD (Courses of Distinction) Awards at MCO’s 14th annual Conference on eLearning. Arroyo was honored for her online Statistics course, and Kelly was recognized for her hybrid College Chemistry II course.

“Middlesex has been a leader in online education for more than 20 years now, and we are extremely proud of our faculty who design and teach courses online,” said Matthew Olson, Dean of Social Sciences, Interdisciplinary, Evening & Online Education. “Aisha Arroyo and Beth Kelly are two outstanding professors who have incorporated innovative teaching and creative uses of instructional technology into their online courses.”

MCC offers 15 degree and certificate programs that can be completed entirely online. Another 10 degree programs can be completed 80 percent online through hybrid course offerings, which combine online and face-to-face instruction.
