Registration is in progress at many participating Kentucky colleges and universities for 2008’s summer session of KET College Courses. The courses begin airing Monday, June 9 and will be available through video-streaming in addition to regular broadcast delivery and VHS/DVD rental. KET’s college credit courses allow students to study at home, even though distance and time might separate them from higher education institutions. Course assignments can be completed at each student’s pace since the televised programs are available for recording, renting or online viewing. Campus instructors facilitate these fully accredited college courses, which may require a few on-campus sessions, and students can communicate with their instructors through e-mail, phone or fax. Upon successful completion of each course, students earn three hours of college credit. The following colleges and universities are offering credit for some or all of KET College Courses this summer: Eastern Kentucky University, Elizabethtown Community and Technical College, Jefferson Community College, Kentucky State University, Morehead State University, Murray State University, Northern Kentucky University, Owensboro Community and Technical College, Somerset Community College, Southeast Kentucky Community and Technical College, University of Kentucky and University of Louisville. The lineup for the 2008 summer semester includes six undergraduate-level college courses: Discovering Psychology: Updated Edition – introductory psychology Dollars and Sense – personal finance Exploring Society – introductory sociology Framework for Democracy – American government Human Geography – cultural anthropology, geography, sociology Journey to Health – personal health, physical education Literary Visions – introductory literature, poetry, creative writing Our Families, Ourselves – sociology, psychology, child and family studies To receive a college course schedule guide, which includes course and registration information, prospective students can call KET at (800) 432-0970.
