Student-drivenTM learning
Rhea is a Purdue-wide online learning resource. The goal of Rhea is to enable members of the Purdue community to teach each other the material they learn as well as the connections between the material and with outside applications. Anybody in the world can browse the content of Rhea using a web browser. Anybody with a Purdue career account can log into Rhea and contribute content. To connect this content with the "real world", research labs, companies and Purdue alumni are invited to become "liaisons" and personally share their perspective with the students through Rhea (see right side-bar). Rhea is developed by a team of student volunteers. Many classes on campus are actually using Rhea as part of the course. Like the student population it serves, Rhea is an evolving tool. We invite you to follow the news to be informed of the latest features added to Rhea.
