NextGen courses are a blend of lecture, online, and experiential learning and are designed on a foundation of Student Learning Outcomes.
Dr. Phil Turner has been a classroom teacher, a librarian, a college professor, and the owner of an information company. He served simultaneously as an academic dean and the lead administrator for distance and distributed learning for fifteen years at two institutions: The University of Alabama and the University of North Texas. Dr. Turner is currently serving as Professor Emeritus in the College of Information at the University of North Texas, and serves as a consultant to UNT's Next Generation Course Redesign™ Project.
He has written extensively on the subject of the application of technology to the teaching and learning process, especially in the area of planning and policy.
