Interested in Taking the Course?

We also are curious to know if your university offers a course comparable to our Global Change course. If not, would you be interested in taking this course asynchronously ? We are trying to assess the potential for offering the course in this manner. We have experimented with administering examinations over the Internet and managing other assignments remotely for a very limited number of students.
