? Internet classes emanating from the *Library* -Reply

[Keith Slade]

I'll let my co-worker, Janet Hovorka, resond to this question,
because she's been involved with an Internet class from its
beginning---

Last year the Utah Academic Library Consortium applied for
a grant to prototype a one credit class about the Internet and
delivered through the Internet.  One librarian from each of the
colleges in Utah was appointed to a committee to write the
class and then deliver it on their campus.  The finished
project was first taught in January '96.  It is completely
taught through the Internet, but ours is the only college that
meets in person and we only meet as a class once.  
The entire class is found at http://www-navigator.utah.edu
The method of instruction and the collaborative effort was
heavily evaluated.  Here is the report:

I have been "teaching" this course, called "Internet
Navigator," this Summer, so I know something about it
myself.
