Postgraduate Certificates in CALL

In April 2001, The Graduate School of Computer and Information Sciences (SCIS) at Nova Southeastern University offered "a totally online masters program and a largely online doctoral program in Computing Technology in Education. Pioneers of online education since 1983, SCIS created the first electronic classroom in 1985 and is currently represented by graduate students from every state in the United States and 34 countries around the world. Nova Southeastern University has been rated among the nation's top universities offering distance education programs, by Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, and The Princeton Review. We wish to bring our programs to your attention. Please feel free to visit us at http://www.scis.nova.edu or phone directly at 1 (800) 986 2247 ext 2005 or (954) 262-2005"

Graham Davies is keeping a list of postgraduate courses in CALL, not necessarily online ones, at http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/GrahamDavies1/courses.htm. Graham is hoping to shift this list over to either the EUROCALL and/or CALICO website (from Graham Davies, President, EUROCALL, May 6, 1999)

MA's and Certificates in ESL

The information below is from way back in July 1999 or earlier unless otherwise indicated:

The International ESL/EFL/ESOL Resource Guide to Frequently Asked Questions Part One contains a rather comprehensive listing of distance learning TESL programs: http://linguistic-funland.com/mele-faq.html

The March '97 issue of The Language Teacher Online has an article entitled "A Guide to British Master's Degrees in TESOL by Distance Learning." Note: See Appendix 1 for links to pertinent email and Web addresses. The article can be accessed at: http://langue.hyper.chubu.ac.jp/jalt/pub/tlt/97/mar/distance.html

This is from a posting on TESLCA-L or NETEACH, passed on as is, with the links heated up for you.
