In case the link has a pb. again, here is the common class summary they all share:

--------------------------------------------
On-line Lego Elementary Engineering for Kids
Ages 8 and Older
This class is an on-line version of the ever popular Elementary Engineering. Once registered for this course, you will be sent a LEGO� kit with over 1,000 very advanced LEGO� parts and pieces. When you receive the kit in the mail, then you are ready to take the class. Yes, you keep the kit when the class is over! The class consists of engineering theory and instruction plus 6 very complex building exercises. This class is for the serious builder!
The class is 7 weeks in length. Your 7 weeks will begin when you register and pay for the class.

Has anyone here had a child who has gone through this course? A friend would like to try it with her son, but would like some feedback first. She's would especially like to know what the time commitment averages for the class.

Thanks so much.
