In Feburary Alan Mills posted a note describing the publicity the course had
generated to that point. In that post he encouraged all course partcipants to
generate any publicity and to inform the group.
I have been asked by the editor of our campus magazine _Technolog_ to write a
short story about my experience with the course. I am titling the piece "The
Virtural Classroom." I highlight my experience with the course, both good and
bad. Briefly, my bad experience was with the MOO technology (being a social
constructionist I has a difficulty with a lack of visual cues), and the good was
working through the fabuous matierial on the WWW. I want to thank all the course
contributors for their hard work.
I have finished the final revision and when I have a publishing date I'll send
another post. Thanks again.
