The Internet College Exchange (ICX)
is a WWW site that employs a search
engine that searches all 3200 US colleges and universities by certain
criteria. College bound students can utilize this site very effectively in
their college search. The site can be used by anyone with Internet access
free of charge 24 hours a day.
Let's hope nobody gets offended by this classification.
The goal is include at least the major institutions
in the fields of interest to Educational Technology.
Help us to improve this.
