Coastline Community College is a community college with three mini-campuses in Westminster, Garden Grove and Newport Beach and an administration building in Fountain Valley, California, United States. The college offers Associate in Arts degrees, Associate in Science degrees, courses to prepare students to transfer to a four-year college or university, and career and technical courses that can lead to career advancement and/or an occupational certificate. The college was founded in 1976, and is part of the Coast Community College District. Its sister colleges are Orange Coast College (in Costa Mesa) and Golden West College (in Huntington Beach). The college is part of the California Community College system, which includes a total of 112 community colleges statewide. The Coast Community College District serves the following seven California cities: Costa Mesa, Fountain Valley, Garden Grove, Huntington Beach, Newport beach, Seal Beach (includes Sunset Beach) and Westminster. ==History== Originally started by the Coast Community College District as the Distance Learning college (it would serve the DL needs of Coast District Residents while Orange Coast College and Golden West College would serve many of the on-campus needs with Coastline also using community facilities for site classes), Coastline has now evolved to include a distance learning program as well as on-campus (on-site) classes available at these three mini-campus sites (see above) and other physical locations throughout the district. Coastline offers distance education in a variety of modalities, including telecourses and the use of Pocket PC and personal digital assistants. Coastline's Distance Learning department has created an open source course management system (CMS) called Seaport which is similar to the products of Blackboard and WebCT. Its Military Outreach program delivers courses to every branch of the U.S. Armed Services. Coastline is also the first college to ever offer a complete degree available through content designed for distribution via a Pocket PC or other mobile learning device (cell phone, iPod, etc.). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Coastline Community College」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
