RESOURCES: Other Places

samplecourses.gifSample courses. The Open Learning Initiative is an interesting project from Cargnegie Mellon to provide online courses and to build a community of use. Check out the first courses available - introductory courses in Economics, Statistics, Causal Reasoning, and Logic - which include simulations and other interactive components (the logic course was unavailable when I looked at this).

Wiki. Creative Commons is building a democratically maintained Wikipedia of Free Culture, and everyone's invited.

Using Flash. A good introductory article from Learning Circuits on using Flash animations to author e-learning.

Plagiarism. The CBB Plagiarism Resource Site is a collaborative project by Colby, Bates, and Bowdoin Colleges to build a clearinghouse for resources and news on this topic, including an online quiz to test your plagiarism IQ.
