Yesterday we were visited by a crew of the regional public channel TV West. They recorded an item on public online courses at our university, which will be broadcasted tonight. It can be watched here.

‘When I first started teaching this online course it felt quite impersonal,’ Online teacherArno Smets tells in the interview. ‘So I asked my online students to send me some feedback on my course. I teach Solar Energy so I received movies about Solar Cells from all over the world. I even got an email from a student saying that thanks to this course the small African village where he lives is supplied with current all day. That’s really great!’
