Education in Rural Australia, v12 n1 p23-33 2002
A final-year teacher education unit in New South Wales (Australia) uses action research as a learning process for interns. Online communication is the key support mechanism for interns placed in distant rural schools. Students appreciate the move to online work because it forces them to read, and bulletin boards provide support for complex projects. (Contains 32 references.) (TD)
