A Global Presence
The internet has become a crucial part of daily life. Email alone has solved tremendous global communication problems. Information on the web increases exponentially every day, and all major news, educational, government, and industry organizations harness the seemingly unlimited power of web-based communications. However, accessing reliable information conveniently, particularly data that must be biblically and scientifically accurate, is not always readily available.
ICR maintains a virtual vault of valuable creation science publications that can provide readers with insights in all fields of science from a trustworthy biblical perspective. Thirty-five years of research and publication through newsletters, books, audio and video resources, radio, etc. are being updated for web formats that will allow visitors to access needed information rapidly.
ICR is not new in utilizing the web for disseminating scientific and biblical information for our constituents. However, we can do more and do it better than we have in the past. The new Morris Center will take the internet presence of ICR to a much higher level in order to provide a convenient portal not only for loyal constituents, but also for the many thousands who occasionally visit icr.org for information and research.
Additionally, ICR’s internet minstries will facilitate the new distance education courses on both the graduate and certificate levels. The online Master of Science in Science Education, designed by Dr. Patricia Nason of the ICR Graduate School, has already begun its third session and continues to add courses and students to its growing degree program. The Creationist Worldview study, a certificate-level professional development program, also web-based, is accepting students for enrollment.
The expansion of ICR’s web portal will provide interested students, researchers, and lay professionals access to sound biblical information from a creationist worldview. As the power of the internet grows, so does the reach of its information, allowing visitors from virtually every corner of the globe to benefit from the research and teaching of ICR’s science faculty and speakers. The dream of Dr. Morris touching lives at the “uttermost part of the earth.”
