The Class

The 2003 Young Scholars Program: Students, Learning and Technology was three weeks of rigorous hands-on, minds-on activities, including working with Robolab and MicroWorlds Pro (see description and pictures below). However, the course also consisted of traditional academics much of which was done within an online environment through WebCT. Readings were discussed in class, face to face, and through discussion threads online. In addition, several mini activities and assignments were submitted for peer critiquing and editing. Reflective Journal entries were also kept throughout the three weeks.
