Overview of Week 3

We learn a great deal from each other. While facilitators may guide the discussion, the real learning happens among netcourse participants. We're learning interdependently because of the discussions we have and the activities we do together. This week, we'll read about collaborative learning and discuss ways to promote such in a netcourse.

You've already started on a Support Group activity -- this week you'll continue that work as you move closer to a group product. We provide you with detailed information on the numerous search engines and educator resources you can find on the Web. We hope that these resources will not only help you with your group exercise, but will also give you additional experience in successful web research. Fun!
