Instead, many of thesecourses focus on providing a context for conversations with others who will implement ML.Finally, K-12 courses provide smaller activities and projects that develop skills related to modelimplementation but are simple and abstract enough to bypass math and programmingrequirements.

Our university hasbeen offering distance education in various forms since the 90s. But the courses we couldoffer using distance technology of the 90s were limited due to the nature of our content –computer science and software engineering courses typically have technologyrequirements that could not be supported at that time. Now with high-speed internetconnections and new technologies, we are no longer restricted by our content. Besides theavailability of new technologies, there may also be pedagogical reasons to consider addingonline components into student learning, according to some
