I was just about to forward to my dept a psychteach post from today that "advertizes" someone's services as a distance learning professor--he is looking for more courses to teach.
This is what I envision: a few enterprising people getting very rich teaching maybe 50 or 100 online courses a semester--same course offered through many colleges nationwide--and maybe sponsored by not just pharma companies, but any company--blog sites, twitter come to mind as well as any electronics that could be used with the course for say, listening to podcasts, and seeing video segments, and finally any foods or beverages (alcoholic included, after all pharma is there already) that young college students like. The future of education??
