Integrated Laboratory Network

Western Washington University’s Integrated Laboratory Network (ILN) has won one of five 2004 Sloan Consortium awards for Most Outstanding Effective Practices in online education. The Sloan Consortium, is an association of institutions and organizations engaged in online learning and is committed to ensuring that education will become a part of everyday life, accessible and affordable for anyone, anywhere, any time, in a wide variety of disciplines.

See a recent talk describing Western's Integrated Laboratory Network (ILN) presented as part of the University of British Columbia's Office of Learning Technology Seminar Series ILN Talk
