Physics online. I would think that's pretty tough. I teach Earth Science and Environmental Studies online. Coming up with labs is a challenge!

What are the goals of the Physics2000 Educational Initiative? To make physics more accessible to students and people of all ages and to counter its current negative image. * by developing an innovative Internet Website, aimed at all ages, emphasizing imagery, interactivity and hierarchical organization. * by developing live classroom courses for undergraduate non-science majors with unconventional topical organization and web support. To demonstrate the connection between modern technology and earlier basic research. * by working backwards from familiar current devices and technologies to general principles established much earlier by basic experiment and theory. To foster an appreciation of the accomplishments of 20th century physics, as we approach the year 2000. * by focusing public attention on current research achievements in physics and explaining their significance. * by developing new inderdisciplinary and cross-topical undergraduate courses for both majors and non-majors.
