TheAlliancefor Lifelong Learning (AllLearn) is a not-for-profit distance learning venture betweenOxford,Stanford, andYaleUniversitiesand was formed in to provide the highest quality, college level online courses and educational offerings to alumni of these three institutions as well as to other adult learners.
AllLearn delivers a rich catalogue of arts and sciences courses authored by faculty from our member universities. Each course is taught by an expert instructor skilled in providing insight into the subject matter as well as in guiding students through the online educational experience. Students can read, think, and learn at their own pace-and according to their own schedule-while sharing a common course-taking experience with other like-minded individuals.
The course that I thought would be of particular interest to your members and web visitors is a course that describes the observational evidence for black holes and recent efforts to determine whether the observed objects have the spectacular properties long predicted by theorists.
The course will also examine the nature and formation of black holes; the new technology that has allowed scientists to find them and the future directions of black hole research. Students will have a chance to work directly with the raw data recently collected by black hole researchers.
No specific background in astronomy or general science is required for this course. Course materials will include readings, videos, extensive web-based tutorials and a set of online tools that have been specifically designed to allow students to explore complex quantitative issues regardless of their background.
