[Offtopic] Free UB eBusiness Fundamentals course

[stephen at melbpc.org.au]

Certain to be quality experiences for all participants.  Good one, Ian.

> Welcome to the University of Ballarat's
> first Open eBusiness Fundamentals course. 

http://www.e-socrates.org/course/view.php?id=171

My name is Ian Knox and I will help facilitate the course. The course 
will start officially in March 2009, but you are invited to enrol 
straight away. 

This is an accredited subject in the UB Bachelor of Business Degree and 
you have an option to enrol for credit, or participate in all aspects of 
the course for free. 

The only difference is that enrolled students will submit assessment, 
receive feedback and receive (official) credit for the subject.

This is the first time I have conducted an open course so please be 
prepared for the unexpected. It is my hope that by sharing experiences, 
ideas, discussion and knowledge it will be a rewarding experience for 
everyone. I will welcome suggestions and constructive feedback at all 
times.

Welcome to eBusiness Fundamentals

My name is Ian Knox, and I will be helping you explore eBusiness 
Fundamentals this semester. This is a trial mirror site replicating the 
content on my (closed) university page. 

This course will be conducted online, which may be the first time you 
have experienced an online course. We will be exploring a lot of new 
ideas and concepts, using online resources, and you will largely direct 
your own learning. The main thing is to keep up and you will do well. 

I ask that you have an open mind about technology, and that you are happy 
to give things a go. If you get stuck on anything, ask sooner rather than 
later so I (or another student) can help you. Now, hang-on and enjoy the 
ride.
