If you just want to get your feet wet, the MITT CFA is the
vehicle for you by providing training in topics that enhance
spiritual formation, practical Christian living, and personal
growth. The MITT Credit Free Academy is a place where everyone
can have a
productive learning experience.
I have to believe that you are reading this because you are
interested in "studying to show yourself approved". MITT is
researching the possibility of delivering classes via the
Internet. This type of presentation has been employed for years,
and quite
successfully. The technology has progressed to the point of
embracing the all-important concept of visual interaction. Using
video-conferencing techniques in your home (or in a static
classroom) is now possible. The advantages are as follows:
(1) Save time and expense of traveling to a central location
(2) Attendance will be a requirement and a
component of course grades, therefore an incentive to attend
classes (3) Visual contact fosters fellowship among
participants and allows the instructor to monitor activities of
students when taking tests. This levels the playing field
between students in the
traditional classroom and those attending by the Internet. (4) Exposure to keynote speakers in real time. Students can ask
questions of the speaker and have meaningful discussions with the
speaker and the other students. (5) Videoconferencing
classes can be scheduled at a time that might not be as
convenient to meet in person. Such as 9:00 pm when family
responsibilities have been taken care of. Or 7:00 am before the
day starts. (6) Videoconferencing classes allow parents to be
physically located in the home to
monitor activities, if need be.(7) Opportunities for a students’
pastor
to sign in as a guest for one session to monitor the process
(8)
Opportunity to acquaint students with online resources
(9). Videoconferencing classes can be made available to
those who are home-bound.
Profile of a Video Conferencing Student/Disciple

College and to achieve a goal/certificate/degree/spiritual

[3] Willing to work with administration to develop/enhance a
viable system capable of
benefitting many other like-minded disciples [4]

Please let us know if you might be interested in participating
