Highlights
Learn As You Earn Fall 2008 Courses Now Available
Register before September 12 to participate in these courses.
HUMS 251: Support Roles in Community Environments (3 credits)
Important News!
Beginning with the classes listed below, the Learn As You Earn Program will be offering courses in exciting interactive computer-based classes, instead of just over the telephone. You will still “attend” a required one-and-one-half hour class each week, but you will be on your computer and listening over headsets. The name of this interactive format is eLive; it allows students to work in small groups, write on the class “blackboard” for all to see, view videos and PowerPoint presentations together, and do other interesting activities during class time. Don’t be concerned about the technical aspects; we will be providing orientation, a tech hot-line, and other support for students who register by September 12th.
HUMS 253: Positive Behavior Supports (eLive Course! 2 credits)
COMM 212: Introduction to Speech Pathology (eLive Course! 3 credits)
HUMS 295A: Practicum (eLive Course! 3 credits)
