This list is about sharing ideas. DE stands for education at a distance.

Welcome to Language and Learning iDEas, a free emailing list for off-campus learners at Monash University. iDEas is a forum for off-campus learners and Learning Support lecturers to ask questions, offer advice and exchange ideas with others.
