HIT: online library courses

[Robert Hiebert <rhiebert@SD6.BC.CA>]

Hello All,

I received many responses to my feeler about online library courses, so
many that the original query must qualify as a "dumb question". Ah, well.
Thanks so much to all of you who replied, and with such grace! (The hits

State.
She just began the courses this fall

The University of Missouri offers some.  I'm taking Web Development over
the
INternet now.

Took a course from the University of Northern Iowa last summer from 6/14
until 7/23 titled The Elementary Classroom and the Internet which was
excellent.  I learned a lot which some of which I've been able to
implement.  This is the URL for further information.  Realize the courses
listed here have already started for this term, but it will give you an
idea of what is offered and most will, no doubt, be repeated next term.
Good Luck!
