Connected Education, Inc., a new not-for-profit corporation devoted to the offering of courses online for academic credit, professional training, and enjoyment of knowledge, announces a joint program of courses with The New School for Social Research (New York) for the Fall of 1985.

Initially, three courses -- Teleworld by Andrew Feenberg, Artificial Intelligence and Real Life by Paul Levinson, and Propaganda by Alfred Lee-- will be conducted on the Electronic Information Exchange System (EIES).

Students who register for these courses will be eligible for graduate and/or undergraduate credit from the New School for Social Research (New York).

Director Paul Levinson recently completed an "electure" on "Space: Humanizing the Universe" on Parti on the Source, and is with the online faculty of the Western Behavioral Sciences Institute. He is a tenured Associate Professor of Communications at Fairleigh Dickinson University, on the Graduate Media Studies Faculty at the New School for Social Research, and faculty member of Western Behavioral Sciences Institute (WBSI).

The Connect Ed staff is dedicated to teaching people how to accomplish things through computer conferencing. True to the cooperative spirit of the growing online community, they promise to do anything in their power to support any person and organization engaged in electronic networking. They're going as far in that commitment as sharing information about other online educational opportunities that traditional "industrial age mentality" would consider as competitors.

Connected Education online addresses: EIES (Connected Education,1204) and (Lev,1303); Unison (Paul Levinson); MCI-Mail (Connected Education); Delphi (Paul Levinson); Parti on The Source (Paul Levinson); and Parti on New York Institute of Technology (Lev).
