As a means to continue to serve our online community, New Mexico Junior College (NMJC) has partnered with the American Meteorology Society to provide an online Ocean Studies course. NMJC is a rural community college in SE New Mexico. It is a Hispanic serving institution with an enrollment of about 2700 students. This course will be introduced in the fall 2007 semester starting in August. At NMJC, new courses have to be designed and approved by our Curriculum Committee so that they meet our academic standards. Once this approval occurred, then the Professor had the task of actually creating the online course curriculum. NMJC uses WebCT as our online delivery system for all online courses. This online ocean studies course will introduce students to the dynamic ocean in near real time, by working with current oceanographic data delivered via the Internet coordinated with learning investigation labs keyed to current ocean products.
