Welcome to the North Seattle Virtual College Community

   Associate Dean, Tom Braziunas

I have been the Distance Learning Director at North Seattle Community College since 1997, and it has been an exhilarating experience! New ways to offer students learning opportunities are evolving at an exciting pace. Now we realize that simply using the phrase “distance learning” does not fully describe the spectrum of educational options we are providing to our students. Online technologies are contributing to sound instructional pedagogy across every curriculum by providing, for example, on-campus classes with ways to expand communications beyond face-to-face class time through online discussion rooms and web blogs. And new multimedia e-tools help teachers demonstrate concepts for
online students with a richly diverse suite of learning styles in alternative visual and kinetic ways.
