This year it has been 10 years since I introduced my first online course. The course is actually still available, but during the last 10 years much has happened. Bandwidth has increased, the picture quality of digital cameras has become much better and the technology used to create web pages has changed dramatically.

All these things make it possible to create even better online courses. Online course 2 - which was added in 2006 - was technically more advanced than online course 1 and introduced videos with instructions. But now I am finally ready to launch a new course, online course 3.

The new course shows you how to needle-felt a hand that can be used for many kinds of dolls. Instructions a provided as text, pictures, drawings and videos.

Compared to my previous online courses this is a short and very basic course. I have therefore decided to make it available for free. Because it is free the course does not include the interactive features of my other online courses where you also get access to a messageboard where you can ask me questions about the course.

As a new feature online course 3 is available both as a version you can access with a browser and as a PDF-file that you can download. This is done to prevent the compatibility issues that often occur when a complex web page with a lot of multimedia files is accessed from a number of both very old and new browsers and from different operating systems. All future online courses will be provided both as a browser-version and as a PDF-version making it easier to save the courses for future use and to print them - something that has caused problems with online course 1 and 2.

My next project will be to make a new online course that is basically a major update of the 10 year old (but still very popular) online course 1.

You can access the new online course 3 here.
