The book, which costs $19.95, is available through the college's bookstore, located on the Web at <www.regents.edu/bookstore>, or by calling (800) 466-1365.

George Washington University, Middle Tennessee State University, Montana State University, and Pennsylvania State University have formed a partnership with AT&T to provide elementary and secondary school educators access to Web-based courses and professional development opportunities. The universities will provide accredited courses through AT&T's Learning Network Virtual Academy, an online centralized resource for teachers. Courses will range from technology usage to middle school mathematics, science, and astronomy.

"The Virtual Academy is the first online centralized resource of its kind to offer teachers access to a host of quality professional development programs focused on integrating technology into the classroom and designed to help teachers meet their credential requirements," said Joan Fenwick, director of the AT&T Learning Network.

Users will be able to review course descriptions and apply or register for courses. However, only teachers will be able to register for continuing education units and graduate degree program courses.

The Web address is <www.att.com/learningnetwork>.
