• Abstract:
  This report describes the preparation, delivery, and evaluation of a short course developed for delivery through compressed video to remote sites. The course covered basics of travel demand models and involved approximately 28 hours of classroom contact time, offered during five days in a ten-day period. The course was a first time course offered by remote delivery. The attendees were split into two groups, with the groups alternating between the remote classroom and the live classroom. Students were asked to evaluate the course and the electronic learning experience. Recommendations are provided on changes to the hardware and software used for the electronic learning, and on future use of this course, and possible other courses that may be based on it.
