of several times in February for that.
Virtual
Classroom
Classes
are limited to twelve
and meet online once a month, using ilinc.com.
This is a live,
interactive class; you can see the teachers and hear other
participants. You will need an Internet connection and headphones with
a microphone attached.
Time
Required
Prior
to each meeting,
participants will read text assignments and watch a video of the
associated lecture. (Class videos are usually about an hour and a half)
Follow-up assignments take from two to six hours monthly. Some
assignments require interaction with a child or a class.
