Current and future uses

Connexions has been very busy building grassroots communities and generating content (as of January, 2004, we have over 1600 Modules and 35 courses in current use, with more in development), but we are always looking for more and diverse areas to expand.

Take a look at a few of the areas and groups with which we are currently involved or to which we could expand in the future, but don't let these limit what you imagine you can do with Connexions!
