Project Rhea
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, current research and 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. Rhea is developed by a team of student volunteers. Like the student population it serves, Rhea is an evolving tool. To follow Rhea's progress, we invite you to become a fan of Rhea on facebook.
