Janet,
Here is a link to one of the courses:
If you click the "Visitor" link (enrollment is closed at this point) you can browse through the course and look at the time table, assignments, materials, etc. I've looked through the first section of the course (watched all the videos, taken a quiz or two and participated in some discussions) and it is very very impressive. All that said, I have no idea how they are grading all the papers, quizzes, and discussion postings. My guess is an army of grad students, but I honestly don't know.

Jim,
Thanks for reporting about this interesting online course.
Who corrected the hundreds of assignments for the class?
I'd be interested to know who among our own faculty have been involved, or would like to be involved, with a similar project.
Thanks

TBers,
Today's TB discussion orbited around online instruction in High School and what that might mean for us in Higher Ed. It made me think of this one:
Enjoy and our final TB meeting of this semester is Dec. 7 at 8 am outside Starbucks. Hope to see you there.
