There is a major effort to develop Internet-based courses at Armstrong Atlantic State University. These course offerings range from supplemental classroom activities to courses taught totally with WebCT for off-campus students. In this course all lecture notes, PowerPoint presentations, schedules and background articles are posted to aid students. Several Internet sites with additional information or different approaches to the same information are linked. Examples of some of the linked sites are radiation accidents, human radiation experiments, cell biology and chromosomal sites, lists of advisory bodies, dosimetry sites, health effects of radiation sites, history sites, physics and protection publication sites and research sites.
Some students take courses without ever setting foot in a classroom on campus.
One option for these off-campus students is courses that are totally WebCT based. This gives the online student an array of activities in addition to the course textbook and lecture notes. This will allow any technologist or therapist with an associate's degree or certificate to complete his or her baccalaureate degree from their home computer. The program will include all of the advanced professional courses in addition to links and agreements with sites offering general education courses such as English or history. The goal of this R.T. to B.S.R.T. program is that the average student will never have to travel to any campus unless he or she wants to.
