Task #9 Universal Class

I really enjoy Universal Class and think it will be incredibly helfpul to a lot of our patrons, or groups in the community. It's easy to sign up and the class list is very extensive. I found applicable topics for mostly all my LibGuides - so things that we used to only have magazines, books, DVD's for - like cooking, nutrition, home repair - now we have really strong online resources for, also. Not only does this take us above and beyond all of our computer class offerings in a single bound, but there are a lot of people who might be intimidated by in-person instuction, but willing to participate in something like this. One day, I will sign on to take something personally fun...(baking pies?)...but for now I have signed up for Project Management. It is not as fun as baking pies...::sigh::. While the topic admittedly makes me sleepy, the format is intuitive. Read the lesson, write a little essay, take a quick quiz, take the next lesson. There's also options for those who want to be more involved - discussion boards, sending messages to other "students." This gives us a lot of great options.
