During the spring semester of 1996 an intercollegiate course entitled"Environmental and Industrial Chemistry" was taken by approximately 100students at 22 different schools. Each school had its own courseinstructor who was responsible for scheduling classes, assigning grades and interacting with students locally. An on-line component involved interaction between students and between students and the authors of five different papers. Approximately two weeks were devoted to discussion of each paper. Three of the papers were presented by industrial chemists. Two of the papers were student papers selected from a pool of papers prepared by students at the participating schools.
The Conference presentation will provide information about the course, and student and instructor evaluations of the course. Also, some course instructors will describe the course offered at their school.
