Free Learning Monitor Launches
By jtcobb on May 8, 2008 in Open Education
Every month I scan the Web for free learning opportunities and package them up into an e-mail newsletter called the Free Learning Monitor. The first edition of the Free Learning Monitor went out at in the wee ours of this morning eastern time. You can subscribe using the form below, or if you are viewing this via a feed reader or e-mail, click through to the Mission to Learn newsletter subscription page. (Also, see the Mission to Learn Privacy Policy.)
Upon subscribing, a copy of the first edition of the newsletter will be sent to you automatically. Here are a few examples of what it contains:
Upcoming Free Webinars
