How It Works |
|
|
| |
|
Before
the Course |
|
|
| |
Once you register,
you will be given a website address and username and password which
will enable you to log on to our on-line class room. First, you’ll
listen to a brief orientation and then go on the message board to introduce
yourself to the rest of the group. Usually a lively discussion develops,
even before the course actually begins. You’ll also want to purchase
and look through the required book. You’ll need access to the internet,
a sound card and either RealPlayer which you can download for free at
http://www.real.com or Macromedia Flash Player which can be downloaded
free of charge at http://www.macromedia.com/flash (recommended for broadband users). |

During
the Course |
|
|
|
|
We will post a new
lesson twice a week including a lecture, a demonstration and specially
developed exercises designed to help you practice specific techniques. You’ll
post your experience on the message board, sharing what worked and what
didn’t with the other participants, and giving and receiving feedback
as well. You’ll also benefit from the feedback of your instructor, an
internationally recognized expert in the field.
Throughout the week
you’ll be able to listen to the lecture and demonstration as many
times as you’d like and check in frequently to the message board
to dialogue with other participants. Though you can access the course
from any computer, each lecture will be archived for two weeks to accommodate
your schedule, should you go out of town.
Each lesson will
build upon the last so you will want to "attend" each week, doing so at a time
that works best with your busy schedule and that suits your learning
style. We
realize that some people learn best in the morning, while others are
better late at night. Group participation is a very important part of your
online
experience. We highly recommend that you post your assignments and
feedback weekly, and read the other message board comments as well. Plan
to spend 3 - 4 hours a week in the course, which includes reading
approximately 20 - 30 pages from the text. |

Teleconference
Sessions |
|
|
|
|
Each course includes
two 60-minute teleconference calls designed to enhance your learning and provide another bridge to connect with your
instructor and other participants. Times for these sessions as well as a phone number will be e-mailed to you and posted on the
message board.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After
the Course |
|
|
|
|
During the week after the last class you will be asked to complete an evaluation form, giving us feedback on the course. You will also
take a brief open book test.
Continuing Education Credit will be given to all students who
"attend" the course and complete the test and evaluation form. Your
postings of assignments each week will serve to verify "your
attendance". |

|
|
|
|
|
It's
easy, it's convenient and it's fun. You'll be part of a community of
energetic, dedicated colleagues from all over the world and you'll develop
powerful skills that you can implement immediately into your practice. |
