May I use this list to tell you about our very short 20 credits course in methods of teaching online from the Institute of Education, University of London . Our "students" normally include academics and related staff that may be part of e-learning design teams, e.g. technical specialists or librarians. It is the 4 week blended learning Online Education & Training, that needs you to be in London for 5 days [26, 30 April; 7, 14, 21 May, 2004] and work online between these days. We consider methods of teaching and syllabus design, closely tied to educational needs of the campus as well as distance use. It gives a real insight into e-learning provision from the student point of view. As with much good modern teaching, we focus very much on group collaborative learning, both in our method of running the course and in the topics we discuss. There is also a wide range of special options for special interests. It is a long established course that has been restructured to run by this 4 weeks blended mode.
