This course is currently in development for distance learning. The plan is to develop this course in Anthropology at UWM so as to complement other campuses studies in music and dance. Currently, other campuses cannot offer such a course to their students, but through the internet, it can be transmitted to their campuses from UWM using real time lectures and discussions illustrated with video material and other graphics. Dr. Washabaugh continues to be amazed at the eagerness of students who say that his courses are really two courses in one - one in Anthropology and one in Technology. Technology-assisted courses are breaking down the barriers between students and students, between students and professors, and between professors and professors.
Students feel that they are now partners in their own learning.
