Native American Studies Available Online
December 4, 2008
BOZEMAN, Mont. (AP) — Montana State University is offering an online class in Native American studies, beginning in January.
The class is titled, "Native America: Dispelling the Myths," and runs from Jan. 14 through May 8. Students do not have to be enrolled in an MSU degree program to take the class.
Students who take the course can earn either three graduate credits at MSU or 45 renewal units for teachers through the state Office of Public Instruction.
Instructor Kristin Ruppel says the course will be particularly helpful for Montana teachers who need training to fulfill Indian Education for All requirements.
