THE
INTERNET LEARNING TOUR
*SYNERGY-NET
SYNERGY SCHOOLS are an on-line facility to
get advice, help, support when and how you need it. While the Internet
market will grow, most of the growth will be in business Intranets not
the more public mass media applications because Internet is too hard for
most people.
They can handle AOL but that's not where it's at.
The Internet
is a new way of looking at how information is handled.

Sent: Thursday, November 21, 1996 4:41 PM To: Peter Pflaum Subject: Re:
TOURS Tour submission! Peter: Thanks for sending another tour. Can you
add more narrative to make the tour clearer. I have done some work - you
should visit the sites and leave in those you think are useful and remove
the ones that aren't THERE IS TOO MUCH as always - That's' why we need
guides and friendly inter-faces...
NEXUM
The main point is that we are moving from a complex PC /windows system,
that took a lot of doing on the part of the consumer to a utility like
the TV set or the telephone where the network is complex but the instrument,
appliance is simple. This is called the web-TV or NC Network computer.
In order to have a foot hold in this huge market several companies are
working on friendly user interfaces - the relationship between the user
and the Internet. Escape is a good example. When Web TV is on your cable
system you can work Excite from your couch. Plug and Play, click and see,
hear, touch and feel.. For instance is there a site you can link to in
the first paragraph for Web TV and/or Network Computer? http://www.nc.com/
The introduction to the Internet Internet
101 is our Internet 100 class, look for Internet.htm, guides, and tools
on this site. THE
INTERNET LEARNING TOUR explains the technology of connecting one computer
to others on a network works.
The Internet is a new technology
unlike any that has come before.
The big difference
is that it contains its own technology transfer and support system.
There
needs to be programs for easy entry and and more education
links to support new users.
Here are some packages that make web use almost easy.
RE: Excite, Web-TV, Pathfinder,
newspage, freeloader:
is the best search engine and individualized
search page. You can set up your topics and the
articles will all line up for you. newspage
can be individualized but not as easy as EXCITE.
FREELOADER
saves to your hard drive a number of sites so
they load more quickly What does FreeLoader do?
Think of it as a VCR for the Web. Some Web sites take a long time to download,
especially those offering multimedia such as movies, audio, or interactive
graphics. With FreeLoader, you can do other things and let your computer
do the waiting for you! FreeLoader 2.0 is the original off-line Web browser.
By downloading complete Web sites directly to your hard drive, FreeLoader
allows you to look through Web sites on your own time - not your service
provider's.
Pathfinder

Pointcast
update on request and is getting close to a complete
internet package.
They are working with Netsacpe to create a plug and play
internet.
The new style is a easy introduction to the web: with POINTCAST
you can open Netscape. Netscape is working with POINTCAST to add all that
is needed to make this a complete Internet package, plug and play. It also
has a cool screen saver.
This is what Web-TV will look like when it comes on line this Christmas
season. Look at the Cable systems alternative: WEBTV http://www.webtv.net/HTML/home.about.html 
See CNN Story
They are late to get to retailers.
They've already made a lot of their
fall plans," said Ed Volkwein, senior vice president and general manager
of sales and marketing at Philips. "This could be the hottest thing for
Christmas."
WebTV
allows you to quickly and easily connect to the Internet. Simply plug one
end into your existing phone line and the other through your television
and you're hooked up. WebTV comes with everything you need to install and
get on-line, including easy-to-read instructions and suggestions on surfing
the web. WebTV doesn't interfere with your cable, VCR or satellite. Plus
it's so simple to install even an adult can do it.

The central point that it should be easy using the http format to have
full integration of the office suite. He assumed as did most people that
it will take mid-band connections ( up to 10 times faster than the dial

I am using Netscape Gold 3b on a PC 486DX, 80 with a 14.4 modem ( or digital connection to replace the analog ) connected
by dial up to ATT worldnet. I have a number of plug ins. Lets start in
PBS. http://www.pbs.org / .
In Netscape or explorer you can open more than one window . Use

Then you can use Window and switch from one to the other. You
see a button " Learn with PBS" lets go there. http://www.pbs.org/insidepbs/learningservices/

It says:
The Internet craze has hit school systems filling educators everywhere
with hope and despair .New options in alternative
educational methodology are now at the tips of everyone's fingers,
but what's in store for teachers who will have to change their traditional
teaching ways if they are to keep up with even the youngest of their students?
Fortunately, PBS has taken an aggressive step in helping teachers - from
novices to experts - cope with the onslaught of the Internet.
Programs such as Using and Understanding the Internet, Life on the Internet,
Triumph of the Nerds and their corresponding Web sites are designed to
challenge advanced surfers as well as inform and empower beginners. Beginner
courses include definitions of commonly used terms and answers to frequently
asked questions, as well as tips on how to become a savvy surfer on the
Internet. Please see below for a list of helpful links. http://www.pbs.org/tconnex/feature.html#links

or
come back later for a visit to the resources mentioned. It's hard to maintain
a linear focus, there is a tendency to wander off. That's fine but when
you are ready, lets continue. At the bottom of the PBS page is a window
with choices of information about their series and their specials. I open
the box and pick Life on the Internet in the specials box. http://www2.pbs.org/internet/

Enabling Real-Time, Multimedia Communication
over the Internet Updated: July 16, 1996
The Microsoft® ActiveX™ Conferencing
platform consists of a suite of technologies that enable real-time, multiparty,
multimedia communication over the Internet. In effect, these technologies
and the associated interfaces turn each and every PC into a new kind of
highly programmable and extensible telephone--a multimedia telephone capable
not only of audio communication, but video and data communication as well.
For more information on Microsoft
ActiveX conferencing, please see the Web pages below. ActiveX Conferencing,
in a nutshell We've provided an overview of the Microsoft ActiveX Conferencing
platform, user scenarios, and releases. ActiveX Conferencing SDK Beta 2
now available!
The ActiveX Conferencing Software Development Kit (SDK)
provides thirteen functions for adding conferencing support to your application.
Version 1.0 Beta 2 of the SDK is now available for downloading from this
site. Please note that you need to install the Microsoft NetMeeting™ 1.0
(Beta 2) application (see below) to use the SDK. I found I had to reload
windows 95 from the CD to get SDX install correctly but now it seems fine.

of the methods we want to use in building the VIRTUAL CLASSROOM.
The system
could be rented as the training facilities listed below (hocf.htm is a
list of corporate universities ) as well as to schools, colleges, and Universities
around the world. It is unreasonable to expect every institution to build
it's own electric classroom when rented space can be more up-to-date and
have the interactive features needed.

BECOME A PARTNER - let's do synergy
together
RE: A proposal: A classroom on the
Internet
TITLE: GVS-IC
The Global Village
Schools - an interactive classroom GOALS: Development of a model prototype
Internet classroom that will: 1.) Test teaching learning methods for different
types of content and methods over the Internet and Intranets. 2.) Be a
test bed of Research and development of interactive software using current
state of the art systems and possible new developments as they come along.
LOGIC:
Rational, there is no one right way.
The concept of remote education
links and training is changing too quickly for most traditional technology
transfer methods.
There is a clear and present need for experimental prototypes
available to institutions and individuals to use, on which to test their
specific application and gain the the valuable experience they need before
they plan and install their own systems or subsystems. On a continuous
basis, there is an intense need to beta test a whole range of alternatives,
encourage others to try them under different circumstances, such as bands
capacities, equipment configurations and protocols . It doesn't make sense
for everyone to try to get on the internet with educational
links or training systems, completely on their own. PARTNERSHIP means
synergy - the whole becomes more than the sum of the parts. METHODS: GVS-IC
proposal calls for the establishment of sites that work together as a network
using interactive systems for remote training and educational
services.
There is about one trillion dollars of such activity world
wide. GVS-IC's look for partners, from industry, government, trainers,
non-profit organizations. We will work with the leading software and hardware
firms, such as Netscape, Microsoft, Digital AltaVista, Corporate Universities
( see http://www.wiredbrain.net/ Internet.htmhocf.htm
) Support will come from the Office of Naval Research, Advanced Research
Projects Agency DOD being the biggest training and educational
institution in the world,
The Open University in Great Britain, Public
Broadcasting here and in Australia and Canada, and others major and minor
providers and users ( see the lists on hocf.htm and tour above. (WEBTV,
CNN, VDO, etc. see below on the tour ) OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS:
There is no
program plan only a process.
The GVS-IC will have a board of directors
made up of partners, sponsors, users, and members of the publics involved
on a global basis. Grant proposals, requests for shared services, income
from fees and licenses, all business affairs will be controlled by the
board. Since it is impossible to forecast actual operational requirement,
the board will hold funds in reserve, and project teams, individuals, internal
or external organizations or individuals, will make proposals to the board.
The board can grant none, all or part of the resources requested. Performance
standards are set with both parties agreement. Work will be done on a global
basis. We have a test site but many locations could be used. GVS-IC could
start with a few thousand or a million dollars.
There is no reason to have
any physical facilities or common location. We will set up work-groups
on remote networks. VISION: unlimited .... what we can imagine today is
all ready being done - we will be doing next year what we can not even
imagine today. I could not have last year even thought of what is possible
now and that will be just as true for this time next year ! 
KEYVIEW

duty servers are providing almost everything in data transfer and processing.
Instead of 1000's of PC's with Office Packages the central processor can
contain Java type modules called up as they are
needed. An open architecture makes it easy to Lotus Notes, Plug and Play
graphics, video, voice mail and 1000's of other applications. Much of the
set up work can be done off site, by contractors and agents. This is NETSCAPE'S
design. Servers work on many platforms with open plug and play features
for clients.
The browser is just a central actor in the plug and play game.
Software and Communications companies integrate networks within and between
servers.
They can also provide the servers. Ross Parot, EDS, found a lot
of companies and contractors for the huge public sector didn't want to
buy hardware and have all the installation and up date head-aches but wanted
plug and play complete turn key systems. Public access servers can provide
most of what small, and middle size business need. As many accountants,
lawyers, travel agents, banks, brokers, office supplies and services, schools,
libraries, and the 25 % of the yellow page economy, services which can
be done remotely will be done remotely ( excludes therapeutic massage,
and most medical hands on stuff such as setting bones but not all diagnosis
and prescription ) that can be provided at a distance will be provided
but they do not replace hands on local contacts.
Peter Drucker pointed out that in Europe the new did not replace the old
but exists side by side. He guessed that 25 % of freight still goes on
barges and canals built in the 18'th century, most freight traffic moves
on railroads built in the 19'th with 20'th century bullet trains, and still
room for 20'th century trucks, and air-freight. One transport system does
not completely replace another but each one has a different place in market.
Telephones, cables, satellites, cellar transponders, all will continue
to have a place on the Internet. Servers are getting fatter and fatter
while terminals may get thinner and thinner. Big servers connected to bigger
servers, thinner PC connected to fatter servers but some PC will not have
connections but stand alone, others will only be smart terminals.
Microsoft's packages are not very open, in fact, MS have behaved much like
IBM in using their OS (operating system) as a tool to control applications.
Word is not better than Word Perfect but it had a strategic advantage in
Office packages and with an install base by machine manufactures. You can't
replace modules very easily if at all. You can't use one presentation with
different graphic interface to different page makers and word processors.
This unnatural restrictive system can not last for long. Go short on MS
and long on Netscape, Oracle, Novell/Corel/WordPerfect IBM and the 1000's
of plug and play providers.
EPCOT II is a design for an open classroom/office
where the really small business and individual can access the plug and
play of the big guys. A communications company provides server space, Netscape
and it's friends and relatives provide plug and play applications - ForumForum,
cool talk, IRC, white board, phone mail, video, real audio, et all
Go to directory, categories, education, page 5, synergy: Since we will

use the ForumForum. Go in and set up conference, documents, newspaper,
mess around. We will only learn by doing. You can find out what this conference
program has to offer and we can see how people can use it. &

The technology is changing very quickly but as of today Monday, July 15,

can be used in instruction.
The core principle is the interactive book.

July 9, 1996 -- In a worldwide telephone conference call, CNN Interactive,
the world's leading interactive news service and PointCast Incorporated,
the leader in broadcast news via the Internet, today announced a partnership
to add CNN's news resources to the PointCast Network™ -- redefining the
way news is presented over the Internet.
The companies also announced an
extensive co-marketing and television advertising campaign to widely distribute
the service. Pointcast and CNN TIME/Warner on your desktop...It's the most
compelling app I've ever seen for a personal computer." Dave Winer, Wired

The Internet craze has hit school systems filling educators everywhere
with hope and despair .New options in alternative
educational methodology are now at the tips of everyone's fingers,
but what's in store for teachers who will have to change their traditional
teaching ways if they are to keep up with even the youngest of their students?
Fortunately, PBS has taken an aggressive step in helping teachers - from
novices to experts - cope with the onslaught of the Internet.Programs such
as Using and Understanding the Internet, Life on the Internet, Triumph
of the Nerds and their corresponding Web sites are designed to challenge
advanced surfers as well as inform and empower beginners. Beginner courses
include definitions of commonly used terms and answers to frequently asked
questions, as well as tips on how to become a savvy surfer on the Internet.

you can spend some time in cyber schoolhttp://www.pbs.org/tconnex/index.htmlor
come back later for a visit to the resources mentioned. It's hard to maintain
a linear focus, there is a tendency to wander off. That's fine but when
you are ready, lets continue. At the bottom of the PBS page is a window
with choices of information about their series and their specials. I open
the box and pick Life on the Internet in the specials box. http://www2.pbs.org/internet/
then on the left "Live Video" for which you will need VDO plug in at after
that return to http://www.vdolive.com/download/

et/index.htmlRE: A proposal for the classroom of the future:I want
to find about $100,000 to build a prototype Internet classroom. We will
take a tour of what that classroom may look like but first the administrative
idea. When the technology is changing as fast as the Internet ( I don't
believe any technology, even Military has moved so fast - but in both cases
the motivation is the same kill or be killed, survival depends on your
tools and organization ) it is impossible for me to write a detailed plan,
submit it through the grants cycle and then if I get funded in a year,
then do what I had suggested a year ago. So we need a contract with NSF,
PBS, Digital ( AltaVista ), Microsoft, IBM. motorola, Intel, Carnegie Endowment
for the Advancement of Teaching or other public or private fund to support
us.
The contract forms a management board, decisions are made and money
is spent. Someone out there knows how to do this.It is quite possible to
get donations, beta software or have to pay high prices. A VDO server could
be free or $ 10,000 or some clone could come along. We also need a real
radio site, and hot Java scripting. We have the
site synergy.trevista.com.
The prototype will be better than anything I've
seen out there but I may discover a whole new concept tomorrow.
The model
I have in mind uses the graphic and search of AltaVista, the sounds of
real audio and the pictures of VDO. It's a living and connected textbook.
The
board controls the expenditures. We may cost more or less then any plan
could predict.
The important point of not getting kick backs, paying bribes,
stealing, and being effective is more likely than under the standard grant
conditions.

From: domorgan@awinc.com; Donna Morgan I'm trying to see the advantages
of this method over a list serve and can think of a few: 1. No need to
set up a list serve in the first place.
2. No need to monitor the list serve, e.g. subscribe, unsubscribe.
3. Easy access to past messages without accessing the archive on a list
serve.
4. Encourages the habit of seeking out messages at a specific site that
may be linked to other sites of related interest, e.g. other info for Internet
101.
5. Encourages the use of an Internet browser rather than relying on a mail
program. MESSAGE BOARD important to check in
TO ADD A MESSAGE:

SYNERGY SCHOOLS are an on-line facility to
get advice, help, support when and how you need it. While the Internet
market will grow, most of the growth will be in business Intranets not
the more public mass media applications because Internet is too hard for
most people.

Subject: RE: TOURS Tour submission! ---------- From: Laura Nacke lnacke@excite.com
Sent: Thursday, November 21, 1996 4:41 PM To: Peter Pflaum Subject: Re:
TOURS Tour submission! Peter: Thanks for sending another tour. Can you
add more narrative to make the tour clearer. I have done some work - you
should visit the sites and leave in those you think are useful and remove
the ones that aren't THERE IS TOO MUCH as always - That's' why we need
guides and friendly inter-faces...
NEXUM
The main point is that we are moving from a complex PC /windows system,
that took a lot of doing on the part of the consumer to a utility like
the TV set or the telephone where the network is complex but the instrument,
appliance is simple. This is called the web-TV or NC Network computer.
In order to have a foot hold in this huge market several companies are
working on friendly user interfaces - the relationship between the user
and the Internet. Escape is a good example. When Web TV is on your cable
system you can work Excite from your couch. Plug and Play, click and see,
hear, touch and feel.. For instance is there a site you can link to in
the first paragraph for Web TV and/or Network Computer? http://www.nc.com/
The introduction to the Internet Internet
101 is our Internet 100 class, look for Internet.htm, guides, and tools
on this site. THE
INTERNET LEARNING TOUR explains the technology of connecting one computer
to others on a network works.
The Internet is a new technology
unlike any that has come before.
The big difference
is that it contains its own technology transfer and support system.
There
needs to be programs for easy entry and and more education
links to support new users.
Here are some packages that make web use almost easy.
RE: Excite, Web-TV, Pathfinder,
newspage, freeloader:
is the best search engine and individualized
search page. You can set up your topics and the
articles will all line up for you. newspage
can be individualized but not as easy as EXCITE.
FREELOADER
saves to your hard drive a number of sites so
they load more quickly What does FreeLoader do?
Think of it as a VCR for the Web. Some Web sites take a long time to download,
especially those offering multimedia such as movies, audio, or interactive
graphics. With FreeLoader, you can do other things and let your computer
do the waiting for you! FreeLoader 2.0 is the original off-line Web browser.
By downloading complete Web sites directly to your hard drive, FreeLoader
allows you to look through Web sites on your own time - not your service
provider's.
Pathfinder
from Time/Warner open a range of news and entertainment.
Pointcast
update on request and is getting close to a complete
internet package.
They are working with Netsacpe to create a plug and play
internet.
The new style is a easy introduction to the web: with POINTCAST
you can open Netscape. Netscape is working with POINTCAST to add all that
is needed to make this a complete Internet package, plug and play. It also
has a cool screen saver.
This is what Web-TV will look like when it comes on line this Christmas
season. Look at the Cable systems alternative: WEBTV http://www.webtv.net/HTML/home.about.html

underestimated the speed but not the direction of the intra-nets and
inter-nets.
The central point that it should be easy using the http format to have
full integration of the office suite. He assumed as did most people that
it will take mid-band connections ( up to 10 times faster than the dial
up ) to run video. And there he is on video ( not very good video but video

Fortunately, PBS has taken an aggressive step in helping teachers - from
novices to experts - cope with the onslaught of the Internet.
Programs such as Using and Understanding the Internet, Life on the Internet,
Triumph of the Nerds and their corresponding Web sites are designed to
challenge advanced surfers as well as inform and empower beginners. Beginner

Enabling Real-Time, Multimedia Communication
over the Internet Updated: July 16, 1996
The Microsoft® ActiveX™ Conferencing
platform consists of a suite of technologies that enable real-time, multiparty,
multimedia communication over the Internet. In effect, these technologies
and the associated interfaces turn each and every PC into a new kind of
highly programmable and extensible telephone--a multimedia telephone capable
not only of audio communication, but video and data communication as well.
For more information on Microsoft
ActiveX conferencing, please see the Web pages below. ActiveX Conferencing,
in a nutshell We've provided an overview of the Microsoft ActiveX Conferencing
platform, user scenarios, and releases. ActiveX Conferencing SDK Beta 2
now available!
The ActiveX Conferencing Software Development Kit (SDK)
provides thirteen functions for adding conferencing support to your application.
Version 1.0 Beta 2 of the SDK is now available for downloading from this
site. Please note that you need to install the Microsoft NetMeeting™ 1.0
(Beta 2) application (see below) to use the SDK. I found I had to reload
windows 95 from the CD to get SDX install correctly but now it seems fine.

BECOME A PARTNER - let's do synergy
together
RE: A proposal: A classroom on the
Internet
TITLE: GVS-IC
The Global Village
Schools - an interactive classroom GOALS: Development of a model prototype
Internet classroom that will: 1.) Test teaching learning methods for different
types of content and methods over the Internet and Intranets. 2.) Be a
test bed of Research and development of interactive software using current
state of the art systems and possible new developments as they come along.
LOGIC:
Rational, there is no one right way.
The concept of remote education
links and training is changing too quickly for most traditional technology
transfer methods.
There is a clear and present need for experimental prototypes
available to institutions and individuals to use, on which to test their
specific application and gain the the valuable experience they need before
they plan and install their own systems or subsystems. On a continuous
basis, there is an intense need to beta test a whole range of alternatives,
encourage others to try them under different circumstances, such as bands
capacities, equipment configurations and protocols . It doesn't make sense
for everyone to try to get on the internet with educational
links or training systems, completely on their own. PARTNERSHIP means
synergy - the whole becomes more than the sum of the parts. METHODS: GVS-IC
proposal calls for the establishment of sites that work together as a network
using interactive systems for remote training and educational
services.
There is about one trillion dollars of such activity world
wide. GVS-IC's look for partners, from industry, government, trainers,
non-profit organizations. We will work with the leading software and hardware
firms, such as Netscape, Microsoft, Digital AltaVista, Corporate Universities
( see http://www.wiredbrain.net/ Internet.htmhocf.htm
) Support will come from the Office of Naval Research, Advanced Research
Projects Agency DOD being the biggest training and educational
institution in the world,
The Open University in Great Britain, Public
Broadcasting here and in Australia and Canada, and others major and minor
providers and users ( see the lists on hocf.htm and tour above. (WEBTV,
CNN, VDO, etc. see below on the tour ) OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS:
There is no
program plan only a process.
The GVS-IC will have a board of directors
made up of partners, sponsors, users, and members of the publics involved
on a global basis. Grant proposals, requests for shared services, income
from fees and licenses, all business affairs will be controlled by the
board. Since it is impossible to forecast actual operational requirement,
the board will hold funds in reserve, and project teams, individuals, internal
or external organizations or individuals, will make proposals to the board.
The board can grant none, all or part of the resources requested. Performance
standards are set with both parties agreement. Work will be done on a global
basis. We have a test site but many locations could be used. GVS-IC could
start with a few thousand or a million dollars.
There is no reason to have
any physical facilities or common location. We will set up work-groups
on remote networks. VISION: unlimited .... what we can imagine today is
all ready being done - we will be doing next year what we can not even
imagine today. I could not have last year even thought of what is possible
now and that will be just as true for this time next year !

RE: Synergy, Clients, Servers, highways
and byways;
Big companies have fat Intranets,
extra-nets and Internet lines, with light NC (network computers). Heavy
duty servers are providing almost everything in data transfer and processing.
Instead of 1000's of PC's with Office Packages the central processor can
contain Java type modules called up as they are
needed. An open architecture makes it easy to Lotus Notes, Plug and Play
graphics, video, voice mail and 1000's of other applications. Much of the
set up work can be done off site, by contractors and agents. This is NETSCAPE'S
design. Servers work on many platforms with open plug and play features
for clients.
The browser is just a central actor in the plug and play game.
Software and Communications companies integrate networks within and between
servers.
They can also provide the servers. Ross Parot, EDS, found a lot
of companies and contractors for the huge public sector didn't want to
buy hardware and have all the installation and up date head-aches but wanted
plug and play complete turn key systems. Public access servers can provide
most of what small, and middle size business need. As many accountants,
lawyers, travel agents, banks, brokers, office supplies and services, schools,
libraries, and the 25 % of the yellow page economy, services which can
be done remotely will be done remotely ( excludes therapeutic massage,
and most medical hands on stuff such as setting bones but not all diagnosis
and prescription ) that can be provided at a distance will be provided
but they do not replace hands on local contacts.
Peter Drucker pointed out that in Europe the new did not replace the old
but exists side by side. He guessed that 25 % of freight still goes on
barges and canals built in the 18'th century, most freight traffic moves
on railroads built in the 19'th with 20'th century bullet trains, and still
room for 20'th century trucks, and air-freight. One transport system does
not completely replace another but each one has a different place in market.
Telephones, cables, satellites, cellar transponders, all will continue
to have a place on the Internet. Servers are getting fatter and fatter
while terminals may get thinner and thinner. Big servers connected to bigger
servers, thinner PC connected to fatter servers but some PC will not have
connections but stand alone, others will only be smart terminals.
Microsoft's packages are not very open, in fact, MS have behaved much like
IBM in using their OS (operating system) as a tool to control applications.
Word is not better than Word Perfect but it had a strategic advantage in
Office packages and with an install base by machine manufactures. You can't
replace modules very easily if at all. You can't use one presentation with
different graphic interface to different page makers and word processors.
This unnatural restrictive system can not last for long. Go short on MS
and long on Netscape, Oracle, Novell/Corel/WordPerfect IBM and the 1000's
of plug and play providers.
EPCOT II is a design for an open classroom/office
where the really small business and individual can access the plug and
play of the big guys. A communications company provides server space, Netscape
and it's friends and relatives provide plug and play applications - ForumForum,
cool talk, IRC, white board, phone mail, video, real audio, et all
Go to directory, categories, education, page 5, synergy: Since we will
maybe here only a month or so, I would really really like it if you would
use the ForumForum. Go in and set up conference, documents, newspaper,
mess around. We will only learn by doing. You can find out what this conference
program has to offer and we can see how people can use it. &

that it will take mid-band connections ( up to 10 times faster than the

I have a number of plug ins. Lets start in PBS. http://www.pbs.org/
. In Netscape or explorer you can open more than one window. Use
File then New Web Browser to have the Tour.htm in one window and the PBS

Then you can use Window and switch from one to the other. You
see a button " Learn with PBS" lets go there. http://www.

It says:
The Internet craze has hit school systems filling educators everywhere
with hope and despair .New options in alternative
educational methodology are now at the tips of everyone's fingers,
but what's in store for teachers who will have to change their traditional
teaching ways if they are to keep up with even the youngest of their students?
Fortunately, PBS has taken an aggressive step in helping teachers - from
novices to experts - cope with the onslaught of the Internet.Programs such
as Using and Understanding the Internet, Life on the Internet, Triumph
of the Nerds and their corresponding Web sites are designed to challenge
advanced surfers as well as inform and empower beginners. Beginner courses
include definitions of commonly used terms and answers to frequently asked
questions, as well as tips on how to become a savvy surfer on the Internet.

you can spend some time in cyber schoolhttp://www.pbs.org/tconnex/index.htmlor
come back later for a visit to the resources mentioned. It's hard to maintain
a linear focus, there is a tendency to wander off. That's fine but when
you are ready, lets continue. At the bottom of the PBS page is a window
with choices of information about their series and their specials. I open
the box and pick Life on the Internet in the specials box. http://www2.pbs.org/internet/

et/index.htmlRE: A proposal for the classroom of the future:I want
to find about $100,000 to build a prototype Internet classroom. We will
take a tour of what that classroom may look like but first the administrative
idea. When the technology is changing as fast as the Internet ( I don't
believe any technology, even Military has moved so fast - but in both cases
the motivation is the same kill or be killed, survival depends on your
tools and organization ) it is impossible for me to write a detailed plan,
submit it through the grants cycle and then if I get funded in a year,
then do what I had suggested a year ago. So we need a contract with NSF,
PBS, Digital ( AltaVista ), Microsoft, IBM. motorola, Intel, Carnegie Endowment
for the Advancement of Teaching or other public or private fund to support
us.
The contract forms a management board, decisions are made and money
is spent. Someone out there knows how to do this.It is quite possible to
get donations, beta software or have to pay high prices. A VDO server could
be free or $ 10,000 or some clone could come along. We also need a real
radio site, and hot Java scripting. We have the
site synergy.trevista.com.
The prototype will be better than anything I've
seen out there but I may discover a whole new concept tomorrow.
The model
I have in mind uses the graphic and search of AltaVista, the sounds of
real audio and the pictures of VDO. It's a living and connected textbook.
The
board controls the expenditures. We may cost more or less then any plan
could predict.
The important point of not getting kick backs, paying bribes,
stealing, and being effective is more likely than under the standard grant
conditions.

From: domorgan@awinc.com; Donna Morgan I'm trying to see the advantages
of this method over a list serve and can think of a few: 1. No need to
set up a list serve in the first place.
2. No need to monitor the list serve, e.g. subscribe, unsubscribe.
3. Easy access to past messages without accessing the archive on a list
serve.
4. Encourages the habit of seeking out messages at a specific site that
may be linked to other sites of related interest, e.g. other info for Internet
101.
5. Encourages the use of an Internet browser rather than relying on a mail
program. MESSAGE BOARD important to check in

Sent: Thursday, November 21, 1996 4:41 PM To: Peter Pflaum Subject: Re:
TOURS Tour submission! Peter: Thanks for sending another tour. Can you
add more narrative to make the tour clearer. I have done some work - you
should visit the sites and leave in those you think are useful and remove
the ones that aren't THERE IS TOO MUCH as always - That's' why we need
guides and friendly inter-faces...
NEXUM
The main point is that we are moving from a complex PC /windows system,
that took a lot of doing on the part of the consumer to a utility like
the TV set or the telephone where the network is complex but the instrument,
appliance is simple. This is called the web-TV or NC Network computer.
In order to have a foot hold in this huge market several companies are
working on friendly user interfaces - the relationship between the user
and the Internet. Escape is a good example. When Web TV is on your cable
system you can work Excite from your couch. Plug and Play, click and see,
hear, touch and feel.. For instance is there a site you can link to in
the first paragraph for Web TV and/or Network Computer? http://www.nc.com/
The introduction to the Internet Internet
101 is our Internet 100 class, look for Internet.htm, guides, and tools
on this site. THE
INTERNET LEARNING TOUR explains the technology of connecting one computer
to others on a network works.
The Internet is a new technology
unlike any that has come before.
The big difference
is that it contains its own technology transfer and support system.
There
needs to be programs for easy entry and and more education
links to support new users.
Here are some packages that make web use almost easy.
RE: Excite, Web-TV, Pathfinder,
newspage, freeloader:
is the best search engine and individualized
search page. You can set up your topics and the
articles will all line up for you. newspage
can be individualized but not as easy as EXCITE.
FREELOADER
saves to your hard drive a number of sites so
they load more quickly What does FreeLoader do?
Think of it as a VCR for the Web. Some Web sites take a long time to download,
especially those offering multimedia such as movies, audio, or interactive
graphics. With FreeLoader, you can do other things and let your computer
do the waiting for you! FreeLoader 2.0 is the original off-line Web browser.
By downloading complete Web sites directly to your hard drive, FreeLoader
allows you to look through Web sites on your own time - not your service
provider's.
Pathfinder
from Time/Warner open a range of news and entertainment.
Pointcast
update on request and is getting close to a complete
internet package.
They are working with Netsacpe to create a plug and play
internet.
The new style is a easy introduction to the web: with POINTCAST
you can open Netscape. Netscape is working with POINTCAST to add all that
is needed to make this a complete Internet package, plug and play. It also
has a cool screen saver.

It says:
The Internet craze has hit school systems filling educators everywhere
with hope and despair .New options in alternative
educational methodology are now at the tips of everyone's fingers,
but what's in store for teachers who will have to change their traditional
teaching ways if they are to keep up with even the youngest of their students?
Fortunately, PBS has taken an aggressive step in helping teachers - from
novices to experts - cope with the onslaught of the Internet.
Programs such as Using and Understanding the Internet, Life on the Internet,
Triumph of the Nerds and their corresponding Web sites are designed to
challenge advanced surfers as well as inform and empower beginners. Beginner
courses include definitions of commonly used terms and answers to frequently
asked questions, as well as tips on how to become a savvy surfer on the
Internet. Please see below for a list of helpful links. http://www.pbs.org/tconnex/feature.html#links

a linear focus, there is a tendency to wander off. That's fine but when
you are ready, lets continue. At the bottom of the PBS page is a window

RE: Internet Technology:
the
learning curve
Complex systems are counter-intuitive
;
SYNERGY SCHOOLS are an on-line
facility to get advice, help, support when and how you need it. While the
Internet market will grow, most of the growth will be in business Intranets
not the more public mass media applications because Internet is too hard
for most people.
They can handle AOL but that's not where it's at.
The
Internet is a new technology unlike
any that has come before.
The big difference is that it contains its own
technology transfer and support system.
There needs to be programs for

Enabling Real-Time, Multimedia Communication
over the Internet Updated: July 16, 1996
The Microsoft® ActiveX™ Conferencing
platform consists of a suite of technologies that enable real-time, multiparty,
multimedia communication over the Internet. In effect, these technologies
and the associated interfaces turn each and every PC into a new kind of
highly programmable and extensible telephone--a multimedia telephone capable
not only of audio communication, but video and data communication as well.
For more information on Microsoft
ActiveX conferencing, please see the Web pages below. ActiveX Conferencing,
in a nutshell We've provided an overview of the Microsoft ActiveX Conferencing
platform, user scenarios, and releases. ActiveX Conferencing SDK Beta 2
now available!
The ActiveX Conferencing Software Development Kit (SDK)
provides thirteen functions for adding conferencing support to your application.
Version 1.0 Beta 2 of the SDK is now available for downloading from this
site. Please note that you need to install the Microsoft NetMeeting™ 1.0
(Beta 2) application (see below) to use the SDK. I found I had to reload
windows 95 from the CD to get SDX install correctly but now it seems fine.

The TOUR gives an idea
of the methods we want to use in building the VIRTUAL CLASSROOM.
The system
could be rented as the training facilities listed below (hocf.htm is a
list of corporate universities ) as well as to schools, colleges, and Universities
around the world. It is unreasonable to expect every institution to build
it's own electric classroom when rented space can be more up-to-date and
have the interactive features needed.
To use a classroom on the Global
Village School house is as easy as getting a site. We assign http://www.wiredbrain.net/index.html

BECOME A PARTNER - let's do synergy
together
RE: A proposal: A classroom on the
Internet
TITLE: GVS-IC
The Global Village
Schools - an interactive classroom GOALS: Development of a model prototype
Internet classroom that will: 1.) Test teaching learning methods for different
types of content and methods over the Internet and Intranets. 2.) Be a
test bed of Research and development of interactive software using current
state of the art systems and possible new developments as they come along.
LOGIC:
Rational, there is no one right way.
The concept of remote education
links and training is changing too quickly for most traditional technology
transfer methods.
There is a clear and present need for experimental prototypes
available to institutions and individuals to use, on which to test their
specific application and gain the the valuable experience they need before
they plan and install their own systems or subsystems. On a continuous
basis, there is an intense need to beta test a whole range of alternatives,
encourage others to try them under different circumstances, such as bands
capacities, equipment configurations and protocols . It doesn't make sense
for everyone to try to get on the internet with educational
links or training systems, completely on their own. PARTNERSHIP means
synergy - the whole becomes more than the sum of the parts. METHODS: GVS-IC
proposal calls for the establishment of sites that work together as a network
using interactive systems for remote training and educational
services.
There is about one trillion dollars of such activity world
wide. GVS-IC's look for partners, from industry, government, trainers,
non-profit organizations. We will work with the leading software and hardware
firms, such as Netscape, Microsoft, Digital AltaVista, Corporate Universities
( see http://www.wiredbrain.net/ Internet.htmhocf.htm
) Support will come from the Office of Naval Research, Advanced Research
Projects Agency DOD being the biggest training and educational
institution in the world,
The Open University in Great Britain, Public
Broadcasting here and in Australia and Canada, and others major and minor
providers and users ( see the lists on hocf.htm and tour above. (WEBTV,
CNN, VDO, etc. see below on the tour ) OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS:
There is no
program plan only a process.
The GVS-IC will have a board of directors
made up of partners, sponsors, users, and members of the publics involved
on a global basis. Grant proposals, requests for shared services, income
from fees and licenses, all business affairs will be controlled by the
board. Since it is impossible to forecast actual operational requirement,
the board will hold funds in reserve, and project teams, individuals, internal
or external organizations or individuals, will make proposals to the board.
The board can grant none, all or part of the resources requested. Performance
standards are set with both parties agreement. Work will be done on a global
basis. We have a test site but many locations could be used. GVS-IC could
start with a few thousand or a million dollars.
There is no reason to have
any physical facilities or common location. We will set up work-groups
on remote networks. VISION: unlimited .... what we can imagine today is
all ready being done - we will be doing next year what we can not even
imagine today. I could not have last year even thought of what is possible
now and that will be just as true for this time next year !

RE: Synergy, Clients, Servers, highways
and byways;
Big companies have fat Intranets,
extra-nets and Internet lines, with light NC (network computers). Heavy
duty servers are providing almost everything in data transfer and processing.
Instead of 1000's of PC's with Office Packages the central processor can
contain Java type modules called up as they are
needed. An open architecture makes it easy to Lotus Notes, Plug and Play
graphics, video, voice mail and 1000's of other applications. Much of the
set up work can be done off site, by contractors and agents. This is NETSCAPE'S
design. Servers work on many platforms with open plug and play features
for clients.
The browser is just a central actor in the plug and play game.
Software and Communications companies integrate networks within and between
servers.
They can also provide the servers. Ross Parot, EDS, found a lot
of companies and contractors for the huge public sector didn't want to
buy hardware and have all the installation and up date head-aches but wanted
plug and play complete turn key systems. Public access servers can provide
most of what small, and middle size business need. As many accountants,
lawyers, travel agents, banks, brokers, office supplies and services, schools,
libraries, and the 25 % of the yellow page economy, services which can
be done remotely will be done remotely ( excludes therapeutic massage,
and most medical hands on stuff such as setting bones but not all diagnosis
and prescription ) that can be provided at a distance will be provided
but they do not replace hands on local contacts.
Peter Drucker pointed out that in Europe the new did not replace the old
but exists side by side. He guessed that 25 % of freight still goes on
barges and canals built in the 18'th century, most freight traffic moves
on railroads built in the 19'th with 20'th century bullet trains, and still
room for 20'th century trucks, and air-freight. One transport system does
not completely replace another but each one has a different place in market.
Telephones, cables, satellites, cellar transponders, all will continue
to have a place on the Internet. Servers are getting fatter and fatter
while terminals may get thinner and thinner. Big servers connected to bigger
servers, thinner PC connected to fatter servers but some PC will not have
connections but stand alone, others will only be smart terminals.
Microsoft's packages are not very open, in fact, MS have behaved much like
IBM in using their OS (operating system) as a tool to control applications.
Word is not better than Word Perfect but it had a strategic advantage in
Office packages and with an install base by machine manufactures. You can't
replace modules very easily if at all. You can't use one presentation with
different graphic interface to different page makers and word processors.
This unnatural restrictive system can not last for long. Go short on MS
and long on Netscape, Oracle, Novell/Corel/WordPerfect IBM and the 1000's
of plug and play providers.
EPCOT II is a design for an open classroom/office
where the really small business and individual can access the plug and
play of the big guys. A communications company provides server space, Netscape
and it's friends and relatives provide plug and play applications - ForumForum,
cool talk, IRC, white board, phone mail, video, real audio, et all
Go to directory, categories, education, page 5, synergy: Since we will
maybe here only a month or so, I would really really like it if you would
use the ForumForum. Go in and set up conference, documents, newspaper,
mess around. We will only learn by doing. You can find out what this conference
program has to offer and we can see how people can use it. &

et/index.htmlRE: A proposal for the classroom of the future:I want
to find about $100,000 to build a prototype Internet classroom. We will
take a tour of what that classroom may look like but first the administrative
idea. When the technology is changing as fast as the Internet ( I don't
believe any technology, even Military has moved so fast - but in both cases
the motivation is the same kill or be killed, survival depends on your
tools and organization ) it is impossible for me to write a detailed plan,
submit it through the grants cycle and then if I get funded in a year,
then do what I had suggested a year ago. So we need a contract with NSF,
PBS, Digital ( AltaVista ), Microsoft, IBM. motorola, Intel, Carnegie Endowment
for the Advancement of Teaching or other public or private fund to support
us.
The contract forms a management board, decisions are made and money
is spent. Someone out there knows how to do this.It is quite possible to
get donations, beta software or have to pay high prices. A VDO server could
be free or $ 10,000 or some clone could come along. We also need a real
radio site, and hot Java scripting. We have the
site synergy.trevista.com.
The prototype will be better than anything I've
seen out there but I may discover a whole new concept tomorrow.
The model
I have in mind uses the graphic and search of AltaVista, the sounds of
real audio and the pictures of VDO. It's a living and connected textbook.
The
board controls the expenditures. We may cost more or less then any plan
could predict.
The important point of not getting kick backs, paying bribes,
stealing, and being effective is more likely than under the standard grant
conditions.

From: domorgan@awinc.com; Donna Morgan I'm trying to see the advantages
of this method over a list serve and can think of a few: 1. No need to
set up a list serve in the first place.
2. No need to monitor the list serve, e.g. subscribe, unsubscribe.
3. Easy access to past messages without accessing the archive on a list
serve.
4. Encourages the habit of seeking out messages at a specific site that
may be linked to other sites of related interest, e.g. other info for Internet
101.
5. Encourages the use of an Internet browser rather than relying on a mail
program. MESSAGE BOARD important to check in

INTERNET LEARNING TOUR
*SYNERGY-NET
SYNERGY SCHOOLS are an on-line facility to
get advice, help, support when and how you need it. While the Internet
market will grow, most of the growth will be in business Intranets not
the more public mass media applications because Internet is too hard for
most people.
They can handle AOL but that's not where it's at.
The Internet
is a new way of looking at how information is handled.

Sent: Thursday, November 21, 1996 4:41 PM To: Peter Pflaum Subject: Re:
TOURS Tour submission! Peter: Thanks for sending another tour. Can you
add more narrative to make the tour clearer. I have done some work - you
should visit the sites and leave in those you think are useful and remove
the ones that aren't THERE IS TOO MUCH as always - That's' why we need
guides and friendly inter-faces...
NEXUM
The main point is that we are moving from a complex PC /windows system,
that took a lot of doing on the part of the consumer to a utility like
the TV set or the telephone where the network is complex but the instrument,
appliance is simple. This is called the web-TV or NC Network computer.
In order to have a foot hold in this huge market several companies are
working on friendly user interfaces - the relationship between the user
and the Internet. Escape is a good example. When Web TV is on your cable
system you can work Excite from your couch. Plug and Play, click and see,
hear, touch and feel.. For instance is there a site you can link to in
the first paragraph for Web TV and/or Network Computer? http://www.nc.com/
The introduction to the Internet Internet
101 is our Internet 100 class, look for Internet.htm, guides, and tools
on this site. THE
INTERNET LEARNING TOUR explains the technology of connecting one computer
to others on a network works.
The Internet is a new technology
unlike any that has come before.
The big difference
is that it contains its own technology transfer and support system.
There
needs to be programs for easy entry and and more education
links to support new users.
Here are some packages that make web use almost easy.
RE: Excite, Web-TV, Pathfinder,
newspage, freeloader:
is the best search engine and individualized
search page. You can set up your topics and the
articles will all line up for you. newspage
can be individualized but not as easy as EXCITE.
FREELOADER
saves to your hard drive a number of sites so
they load more quickly What does FreeLoader do?
Think of it as a VCR for the Web. Some Web sites take a long time to download,
especially those offering multimedia such as movies, audio, or interactive
graphics. With FreeLoader, you can do other things and let your computer
do the waiting for you! FreeLoader 2.0 is the original off-line Web browser.
By downloading complete Web sites directly to your hard drive, FreeLoader
allows you to look through Web sites on your own time - not your service
provider's.
Pathfinder
from Time/Warner open a range of news and entertainment.
Pointcast
update on request and is getting close to a complete
internet package.
They are working with Netsacpe to create a plug and play
internet.
The new style is a easy introduction to the web: with POINTCAST
you can open Netscape. Netscape is working with POINTCAST to add all that
is needed to make this a complete Internet package, plug and play. It also
has a cool screen saver.
This is what Web-TV will look like when it comes on line this Christmas
season. Look at the Cable systems alternative: WEBTV http://www.webtv.net/HTML/home.about.html
See CNN Story
They are late to get to retailers.
They've already made a lot of their
fall plans," said Ed Volkwein, senior vice president and general manager
of sales and marketing at Philips. "This could be the hottest thing for
Christmas."
WebTV
allows you to quickly and easily connect to the Internet. Simply plug one
end into your existing phone line and the other through your television
and you're hooked up. WebTV comes with everything you need to install and
get on-line, including easy-to-read instructions and suggestions on surfing
the web. WebTV doesn't interfere with your cable, VCR or satellite. Plus
it's so simple to install even an adult can do it.

it will take mid-band connections ( up to 10 times faster than the dial

No more waiting for graphics and audio files
to download - Narrative's Enliven viewer, a Netscape Navigator plug-in
for Windows, gives you streaming multimedia on the Web. Now you need to
down load the plug-in and use Netscape 2 - ( I had to get a copy from 205.218.156.36
the netscape ftp ( much faster than their download pages )
Then it worked
( after several tries and a reboot ) plays a video type CD talking page.

than download, setup application and play - it can run off the web pages.

at 10 times the speed of Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN), which
operates at 128 kbps, and about 50/50times faster than a 28.8 kpbs dial-up
modem ( or digital connection to replace the analog ). For comparison, a 2 megabit(Mb) file -- or the equivalent of 100
pages of text -- can be downloaded in 1.5 seconds using ADSL; 15.5 seconds
using ISDN, and 70 seconds using a dial-up 28.8 kbps modem ( or digital connection to replace the analog ).
The NETMEETING
is a killer application. It's phone, chat, ftp, flip chart, and will tie
to OFFICE 97 - also get KEYVIEW for ease of using all kinds of formats.
The files are on the synergy.trevista.com site and you can get a password

Strikes back again: POINTCAST ( www.pointcast.com ) will package with
Windows 96, Internet explorer and Microsoft Office 96 and along with AltraVista's
personal search engine creates a very powerful package. You can find almost
anything anywhere and using Net Meeting ( also to be packaged ) work on
it with any file anywhere. POINTCAST will do the up dates and provide information
flow, MS office document, data, graphic and sound and video production,
AltaVista file management on and off site, and net meeting, conference
and long distance communications. Local Service providers will have software
connect with I-phones and made local and 800 calls. This by passes the
long distance companies who may fight or join the scramble. You use conference
software to connect to a server in Hong Kong and it makes a regular local
call for you. We are very close. AltraVista person search engine: http://altavista.software.digital.com/products/

Enabling Real-Time, Multimedia Communication
over the Internet Updated: July 16, 1996
The Microsoft® ActiveX™ Conferencing
platform consists of a suite of technologies that enable real-time, multiparty,
multimedia communication over the Internet. In effect, these technologies
and the associated interfaces turn each and every PC into a new kind of
highly programmable and extensible telephone--a multimedia telephone capable
not only of audio communication, but video and data communication as well.
For more information on Microsoft
ActiveX conferencing, please see the Web pages below. ActiveX Conferencing,
in a nutshell We've provided an overview of the Microsoft ActiveX Conferencing
platform, user scenarios, and releases. ActiveX Conferencing SDK Beta 2
now available!
The ActiveX Conferencing Software Development Kit (SDK)
provides thirteen functions for adding conferencing support to your application.
Version 1.0 Beta 2 of the SDK is now available for downloading from this
site. Please note that you need to install the Microsoft NetMeeting™ 1.0
(Beta 2) application (see below) to use the SDK. I found I had to reload
windows 95 from the CD to get SDX install correctly but now it seems fine.

The TOUR gives an idea
of the methods we want to use in building the VIRTUAL CLASSROOM.
The system
could be rented as the training facilities listed below (hocf.htm is a
list of corporate universities ) as well as to schools, colleges, and Universities
around the world. It is unreasonable to expect every institution to build
it's own electric classroom when rented space can be more up-to-date and
have the interactive features needed.
To use a classroom on the Global
Village School house is as easy as getting a site. We assign http://www.wiredbrain.net/index.html

BECOME A PARTNER - let's do synergy
together
RE: A proposal: A classroom on the
Internet
TITLE: GVS-IC
The Global Village
Schools - an interactive classroom GOALS: Development of a model prototype
Internet classroom that will: 1.) Test teaching learning methods for different
types of content and methods over the Internet and Intranets. 2.) Be a
test bed of Research and development of interactive software using current
state of the art systems and possible new developments as they come along.
LOGIC:
Rational, there is no one right way.
The concept of remote education
links and training is changing too quickly for most traditional technology
transfer methods.
There is a clear and present need for experimental prototypes
available to institutions and individuals to use, on which to test their
specific application and gain the the valuable experience they need before
they plan and install their own systems or subsystems. On a continuous
basis, there is an intense need to beta test a whole range of alternatives,
encourage others to try them under different circumstances, such as bands
capacities, equipment configurations and protocols . It doesn't make sense
for everyone to try to get on the internet with educational
links or training systems, completely on their own. PARTNERSHIP means
synergy - the whole becomes more than the sum of the parts. METHODS: GVS-IC
proposal calls for the establishment of sites that work together as a network
using interactive systems for remote training and educational
services.
There is about one trillion dollars of such activity world
wide. GVS-IC's look for partners, from industry, government, trainers,
non-profit organizations. We will work with the leading software and hardware
firms, such as Netscape, Microsoft, Digital AltaVista, Corporate Universities
( see http://www.wiredbrain.net/ Internet.htmhocf.htm
) Support will come from the Office of Naval Research, Advanced Research
Projects Agency DOD being the biggest training and educational
institution in the world,
The Open University in Great Britain, Public
Broadcasting here and in Australia and Canada, and others major and minor
providers and users ( see the lists on hocf.htm and tour above. (WEBTV,
CNN, VDO, etc. see below on the tour ) OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS:
There is no
program plan only a process.
The GVS-IC will have a board of directors
made up of partners, sponsors, users, and members of the publics involved
on a global basis. Grant proposals, requests for shared services, income
from fees and licenses, all business affairs will be controlled by the
board. Since it is impossible to forecast actual operational requirement,
the board will hold funds in reserve, and project teams, individuals, internal
or external organizations or individuals, will make proposals to the board.
The board can grant none, all or part of the resources requested. Performance
standards are set with both parties agreement. Work will be done on a global
basis. We have a test site but many locations could be used. GVS-IC could
start with a few thousand or a million dollars.
There is no reason to have
any physical facilities or common location. We will set up work-groups
on remote networks. VISION: unlimited .... what we can imagine today is
all ready being done - we will be doing next year what we can not even
imagine today. I could not have last year even thought of what is possible
now and that will be just as true for this time next year !

the virtual office or classroom, connection between individuals and LANS

RE: Synergy, Clients, Servers, highways
and byways;
Big companies have fat Intranets,
extra-nets and Internet lines, with light NC (network computers). Heavy
duty servers are providing almost everything in data transfer and processing.
Instead of 1000's of PC's with Office Packages the central processor can
contain Java type modules called up as they are
needed. An open architecture makes it easy to Lotus Notes, Plug and Play
graphics, video, voice mail and 1000's of other applications. Much of the
set up work can be done off site, by contractors and agents. This is NETSCAPE'S
design. Servers work on many platforms with open plug and play features
for clients.
The browser is just a central actor in the plug and play game.
Software and Communications companies integrate networks within and between
servers.
They can also provide the servers. Ross Parot, EDS, found a lot
of companies and contractors for the huge public sector didn't want to
buy hardware and have all the installation and up date head-aches but wanted
plug and play complete turn key systems. Public access servers can provide
most of what small, and middle size business need. As many accountants,
lawyers, travel agents, banks, brokers, office supplies and services, schools,
libraries, and the 25 % of the yellow page economy, services which can
be done remotely will be done remotely ( excludes therapeutic massage,
and most medical hands on stuff such as setting bones but not all diagnosis
and prescription ) that can be provided at a distance will be provided
but they do not replace hands on local contacts.
Peter Drucker pointed out that in Europe the new did not replace the old
but exists side by side. He guessed that 25 % of freight still goes on
barges and canals built in the 18'th century, most freight traffic moves
on railroads built in the 19'th with 20'th century bullet trains, and still
room for 20'th century trucks, and air-freight. One transport system does
not completely replace another but each one has a different place in market.
Telephones, cables, satellites, cellar transponders, all will continue
to have a place on the Internet. Servers are getting fatter and fatter
while terminals may get thinner and thinner. Big servers connected to bigger
servers, thinner PC connected to fatter servers but some PC will not have
connections but stand alone, others will only be smart terminals.
Microsoft's packages are not very open, in fact, MS have behaved much like
IBM in using their OS (operating system) as a tool to control applications.
Word is not better than Word Perfect but it had a strategic advantage in
Office packages and with an install base by machine manufactures. You can't
replace modules very easily if at all. You can't use one presentation with
different graphic interface to different page makers and word processors.
This unnatural restrictive system can not last for long. Go short on MS
and long on Netscape, Oracle, Novell/Corel/WordPerfect IBM and the 1000's
of plug and play providers.
EPCOT II is a design for an open classroom/office
where the really small business and individual can access the plug and
play of the big guys. A communications company provides server space, Netscape
and it's friends and relatives provide plug and play applications - ForumForum,
cool talk, IRC, white board, phone mail, video, real audio, et all
Go to directory, categories, education, page 5, synergy: Since we will
maybe here only a month or so, I would really really like it if you would
use the ForumForum. Go in and set up conference, documents, newspaper,
mess around. We will only learn by doing. You can find out what this conference
program has to offer and we can see how people can use it. &

et/index.htmlRE: A proposal for the classroom of the future:I want
to find about $100,000 to build a prototype Internet classroom. We will
take a tour of what that classroom may look like but first the administrative
idea. When the technology is changing as fast as the Internet ( I don't
believe any technology, even Military has moved so fast - but in both cases
the motivation is the same kill or be killed, survival depends on your
tools and organization ) it is impossible for me to write a detailed plan,
submit it through the grants cycle and then if I get funded in a year,
then do what I had suggested a year ago. So we need a contract with NSF,
PBS, Digital ( AltaVista ), Microsoft, IBM. motorola, Intel, Carnegie Endowment
for the Advancement of Teaching or other public or private fund to support
us.
The contract forms a management board, decisions are made and money
is spent. Someone out there knows how to do this.It is quite possible to
get donations, beta software or have to pay high prices. A VDO server could
be free or $ 10,000 or some clone could come along. We also need a real
radio site, and hot Java scripting. We have the
site synergy.trevista.com.
The prototype will be better than anything I've
seen out there but I may discover a whole new concept tomorrow.
The model
I have in mind uses the graphic and search of AltaVista, the sounds of
real audio and the pictures of VDO. It's a living and connected textbook.
The
board controls the expenditures. We may cost more or less then any plan
could predict.
The important point of not getting kick backs, paying bribes,
stealing, and being effective is more likely than under the standard grant
conditions.

TOURS Tour submission! Peter: Thanks for sending another tour. Can you
add more narrative to make the tour clearer. I have done some work - you
should visit the sites and leave in those you think are useful and remove
the ones that aren't THERE IS TOO MUCH as always - That's' why we need
guides and friendly inter-faces...
NEXUM
The main point is that we are moving from a complex PC /windows system,
that took a lot of doing on the part of the consumer to a utility like
the TV set or the telephone where the network is complex but the instrument,
appliance is simple. This is called the web-TV or NC Network computer.
In order to have a foot hold in this huge market several companies are
working on friendly user interfaces - the relationship between the user
and the Internet. Escape is a good example. When Web TV is on your cable
system you can work Excite from your couch. Plug and Play, click and see,
hear, touch and feel.. For instance is there a site you can link to in
the first paragraph for Web TV and/or Network Computer? http://www.nc.com/

NARRATIVE COMMUNICATIONS
-
No more waiting for graphics and audio files
to download - Narrative's Enliven viewer, a Netscape Navigator plug-in
for Windows, gives you streaming multimedia on the Web. Now you need to
down load the plug-in and use Netscape 2 - ( I had to get a copy from 205.218.156.36
the netscape ftp ( much faster than their download pages )
Then it worked
( after several tries and a reboot ) plays a video type CD talking page.
The stream in real audio has now become a video play with buffer. Rather
than download, setup application and play - it can run off the web pages.

PBS ---
I am using Netscape Gold 3b on a PC 486DX, 80 with a 14.4 modem ( or digital connection to replace the analog ) connected
by dial up to ATT worldnet. I have a number of plug ins. Lets start in
PBS. http://www.pbs.org / .
In Netscape or explorer you can open more than one window . Use
File then New Web Browser to have the Tour.htm in one window and the PBS
in another.
Then you can use Window and switch from one to the other. You
see a button " Learn with PBS" lets go there. http://www.pbs.org/insidepbs/learningservices/
Then to CyberSchool:
http://www.pbs.org/tconnex/feature.html
It says:
The Internet craze has hit school systems filling educators everywhere
with hope and despair .New options in alternative
educational methodology are now at the tips of everyone's fingers,
but what's in store for teachers who will have to change their traditional
teaching ways if they are to keep up with even the youngest of their students?
Fortunately, PBS has taken an aggressive step in helping teachers - from
novices to experts - cope with the onslaught of the Internet.
Programs such as Using and Understanding the Internet, Life on the Internet,
Triumph of the Nerds and their corresponding Web sites are designed to
challenge advanced surfers as well as inform and empower beginners. Beginner
courses include definitions of commonly used terms and answers to frequently
asked questions, as well as tips on how to become a savvy surfer on the
Internet. Please see below for a list of helpful links. http://www.pbs.org/tconnex/feature.html#links
Now you can spend some time in cyber school
http://www.pbs.org/tconnex/index.html
or
come back later for a visit to the resources mentioned. It's hard to maintain
a linear focus, there is a tendency to wander off. That's fine but when
you are ready, lets continue. At the bottom of the PBS page is a window
with choices of information about their series and their specials. I open
the box and pick Life on the Internet in the specials box. http://www2.pbs.org/internet/
then
on the left "Live Video" for which you will need VDO plug in at after that
return to http://www.vdolive.com/download/
The stream in real audio has now become a video play with buffer. Rather
than download, setup application and play - it can run off the web pages.

platform consists of a suite of technologies that enable real-time, multiparty,
multimedia communication over the Internet. In effect, these technologies
and the associated interfaces turn each and every PC into a new kind of
highly programmable and extensible telephone--a multimedia telephone capable
not only of audio communication, but video and data communication as well.
For more information on Microsoft
ActiveX conferencing, please see the Web pages below. ActiveX Conferencing,

The ActiveX Conferencing Software Development Kit (SDK)
provides thirteen functions for adding conferencing support to your application.
Version 1.0 Beta 2 of the SDK is now available for downloading from this

The TOUR gives an idea
of the methods we want to use in building the VIRTUAL CLASSROOM.
The system
could be rented as the training facilities listed below (hocf.htm is a
list of corporate universities ) as well as to schools, colleges, and Universities
around the world. It is unreasonable to expect every institution to build
it's own electric classroom when rented space can be more up-to-date and
have the interactive features needed.
To use a classroom on the Global

BECOME A PARTNER - let's do synergy
together
RE: A proposal: A classroom on the
Internet
TITLE: GVS-IC
The Global Village
Schools - an interactive classroom GOALS: Development of a model prototype
Internet classroom that will: 1.) Test teaching learning methods for different
types of content and methods over the Internet and Intranets. 2.) Be a
test bed of Research and development of interactive software using current
state of the art systems and possible new developments as they come along.
LOGIC:
Rational, there is no one right way.
The concept of remote education
links and training is changing too quickly for most traditional technology
transfer methods.
There is a clear and present need for experimental prototypes
available to institutions and individuals to use, on which to test their
specific application and gain the the valuable experience they need before
they plan and install their own systems or subsystems. On a continuous
basis, there is an intense need to beta test a whole range of alternatives,
encourage others to try them under different circumstances, such as bands
capacities, equipment configurations and protocols . It doesn't make sense
for everyone to try to get on the internet with educational
links or training systems, completely on their own. PARTNERSHIP means
synergy - the whole becomes more than the sum of the parts. METHODS: GVS-IC
proposal calls for the establishment of sites that work together as a network
using interactive systems for remote training and educational
services.
There is about one trillion dollars of such activity world
wide. GVS-IC's look for partners, from industry, government, trainers,
non-profit organizations. We will work with the leading software and hardware
firms, such as Netscape, Microsoft, Digital AltaVista, Corporate Universities
( see http://www.wiredbrain.net/ Internet.htmhocf.htm
) Support will come from the Office of Naval Research, Advanced Research
Projects Agency DOD being the biggest training and educational
institution in the world,
The Open University in Great Britain, Public
Broadcasting here and in Australia and Canada, and others major and minor
providers and users ( see the lists on hocf.htm and tour above. (WEBTV,
CNN, VDO, etc. see below on the tour ) OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS:
There is no
program plan only a process.
The GVS-IC will have a board of directors
made up of partners, sponsors, users, and members of the publics involved
on a global basis. Grant proposals, requests for shared services, income
from fees and licenses, all business affairs will be controlled by the
board. Since it is impossible to forecast actual operational requirement,
the board will hold funds in reserve, and project teams, individuals, internal
or external organizations or individuals, will make proposals to the board.
The board can grant none, all or part of the resources requested. Performance
standards are set with both parties agreement. Work will be done on a global
basis. We have a test site but many locations could be used. GVS-IC could
start with a few thousand or a million dollars.
There is no reason to have
any physical facilities or common location. We will set up work-groups
on remote networks. VISION: unlimited .... what we can imagine today is
all ready being done - we will be doing next year what we can not even
imagine today. I could not have last year even thought of what is possible
now and that will be just as true for this time next year !
KEYVIEW
The Keyview has just kicked into my Netscape - It gives documents
and /images a whole new aspect.. and ability to edit and transfer. SEE

GROUP WORKS:
I think we can set up a work group
on the internet TCP/IP dial up connection. This would be the model for
the virtual office or classroom, connection between individuals and LANS
with the internet - Intranets.

RE: Synergy, Clients, Servers, highways
and byways;
Big companies have fat Intranets,
extra-nets and Internet lines, with light NC (network computers). Heavy
duty servers are providing almost everything in data transfer and processing.
Instead of 1000's of PC's with Office Packages the central processor can
contain Java type modules called up as they are
needed. An open architecture makes it easy to Lotus Notes, Plug and Play
graphics, video, voice mail and 1000's of other applications. Much of the
set up work can be done off site, by contractors and agents. This is NETSCAPE'S
design. Servers work on many platforms with open plug and play features
for clients.
The browser is just a central actor in the plug and play game.
Software and Communications companies integrate networks within and between
servers.
They can also provide the servers. Ross Parot, EDS, found a lot
of companies and contractors for the huge public sector didn't want to
buy hardware and have all the installation and up date head-aches but wanted
plug and play complete turn key systems. Public access servers can provide
most of what small, and middle size business need. As many accountants,
lawyers, travel agents, banks, brokers, office supplies and services, schools,
libraries, and the 25 % of the yellow page economy, services which can
be done remotely will be done remotely ( excludes therapeutic massage,
and most medical hands on stuff such as setting bones but not all diagnosis
and prescription ) that can be provided at a distance will be provided
but they do not replace hands on local contacts.
Peter Drucker pointed out that in Europe the new did not replace the old
but exists side by side. He guessed that 25 % of freight still goes on
barges and canals built in the 18'th century, most freight traffic moves
on railroads built in the 19'th with 20'th century bullet trains, and still
room for 20'th century trucks, and air-freight. One transport system does
not completely replace another but each one has a different place in market.
Telephones, cables, satellites, cellar transponders, all will continue
to have a place on the Internet. Servers are getting fatter and fatter
while terminals may get thinner and thinner. Big servers connected to bigger
servers, thinner PC connected to fatter servers but some PC will not have
connections but stand alone, others will only be smart terminals.
Microsoft's packages are not very open, in fact, MS have behaved much like
IBM in using their OS (operating system) as a tool to control applications.
Word is not better than Word Perfect but it had a strategic advantage in
Office packages and with an install base by machine manufactures. You can't
replace modules very easily if at all. You can't use one presentation with
different graphic interface to different page makers and word processors.
This unnatural restrictive system can not last for long. Go short on MS
and long on Netscape, Oracle, Novell/Corel/WordPerfect IBM and the 1000's
of plug and play providers.

The technology is changing very quickly but as of today Monday, July 15,

can be used in instruction.
The core principle is the interactive book.

July 9, 1996 -- In a worldwide telephone conference call, CNN Interactive,
the world's leading interactive news service and PointCast Incorporated,
the leader in broadcast news via the Internet, today announced a partnership
to add CNN's news resources to the PointCast Network™ -- redefining the
way news is presented over the Internet.
The companies also announced an
extensive co-marketing and television advertising campaign to widely distribute
the service. Pointcast and CNN TIME/Warner on your desktop...It's the most

Fortunately, PBS has taken an aggressive step in helping teachers - from
novices to experts - cope with the onslaught of the Internet.Programs such
as Using and Understanding the Internet, Life on the Internet, Triumph
of the Nerds and their corresponding Web sites are designed to challenge
advanced surfers as well as inform and empower beginners. Beginner courses
include definitions of commonly used terms and answers to frequently asked

a linear focus, there is a tendency to wander off. That's fine but when
you are ready, lets continue. At the bottom of the PBS page is a window

et/index.htmlRE: A proposal for the classroom of the future:I want
to find about $100,000 to build a prototype Internet classroom. We will
take a tour of what that classroom may look like but first the administrative
idea. When the technology is changing as fast as the Internet ( I don't
believe any technology, even Military has moved so fast - but in both cases
the motivation is the same kill or be killed, survival depends on your
tools and organization ) it is impossible for me to write a detailed plan,
submit it through the grants cycle and then if I get funded in a year,
then do what I had suggested a year ago. So we need a contract with NSF,
PBS, Digital ( AltaVista ), Microsoft, IBM. motorola, Intel, Carnegie Endowment
for the Advancement of Teaching or other public or private fund to support
us.
The contract forms a management board, decisions are made and money
is spent. Someone out there knows how to do this.It is quite possible to
get donations, beta software or have to pay high prices. A VDO server could
be free or $ 10,000 or some clone could come along. We also need a real
radio site, and hot Java scripting. We have the
site synergy.trevista.com.
The prototype will be better than anything I've
seen out there but I may discover a whole new concept tomorrow.
The model
I have in mind uses the graphic and search of AltaVista, the sounds of
real audio and the pictures of VDO. It's a living and connected textbook.
The
board controls the expenditures. We may cost more or less then any plan
could predict.
The important point of not getting kick backs, paying bribes,
stealing, and being effective is more likely than under the standard grant
conditions.

set up a list serve in the first place.
2. No need to monitor the list serve, e.g. subscribe, unsubscribe.
3. Easy access to past messages without accessing the archive on a list
serve.
4. Encourages the habit of seeking out messages at a specific site that
may be linked to other sites of related interest, e.g. other info for Internet

RE: A proposal: A classroom on the
Internet
TITLE: GVS-IC
The Global Village
Schools - an interactive classroom GOALS: Development of a model prototype
Internet classroom that will: 1.) Test teaching learning methods for different
types of content and methods over the Internet and Intranets. 2.) Be a
test bed of Research and development of interactive software using current
state of the art systems and possible new developments as they come along.
LOGIC:
Rational, there is no one right way.
The concept of remote education
links and training is changing too quickly for most traditional technology
transfer methods.
There is a clear and present need for experimental prototypes
available to institutions and individuals to use, on which to test their
specific application and gain the the valuable experience they need before
they plan and install their own systems or subsystems. On a continuous
basis, there is an intense need to beta test a whole range of alternatives,
encourage others to try them under different circumstances, such as bands
capacities, equipment configurations and protocols . It doesn't make sense
for everyone to try to get on the internet with educational
links or training systems, completely on their own. PARTNERSHIP means
synergy - the whole becomes more than the sum of the parts. METHODS: GVS-IC
proposal calls for the establishment of sites that work together as a network
using interactive systems for remote training and educational
services.
There is about one trillion dollars of such activity world
wide. GVS-IC's look for partners, from industry, government, trainers,
non-profit organizations. We will work with the leading software and hardware
firms, such as Netscape, Microsoft, Digital AltaVista, Corporate Universities
( see http://www.wiredbrain.net/ Internet.htmhocf.htm
) Support will come from the Office of Naval Research, Advanced Research
Projects Agency DOD being the biggest training and educational
institution in the world,
The Open University in Great Britain, Public
Broadcasting here and in Australia and Canada, and others major and minor
providers and users ( see the lists on hocf.htm and tour above. (WEBTV,
CNN, VDO, etc. see below on the tour ) OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS:
There is no
program plan only a process.
The GVS-IC will have a board of directors
made up of partners, sponsors, users, and members of the publics involved
on a global basis. Grant proposals, requests for shared services, income
from fees and licenses, all business affairs will be controlled by the
board. Since it is impossible to forecast actual operational requirement,
the board will hold funds in reserve, and project teams, individuals, internal
or external organizations or individuals, will make proposals to the board.
The board can grant none, all or part of the resources requested. Performance
standards are set with both parties agreement. Work will be done on a global
basis. We have a test site but many locations could be used. GVS-IC could
start with a few thousand or a million dollars.
There is no reason to have
any physical facilities or common location. We will set up work-groups
on remote networks. VISION: unlimited .... what we can imagine today is
all ready being done - we will be doing next year what we can not even
imagine today. I could not have last year even thought of what is possible
now and that will be just as true for this time next year !

RE: Synergy, Clients, Servers, highways
and byways;
Big companies have fat Intranets,
extra-nets and Internet lines, with light NC (network computers). Heavy
duty servers are providing almost everything in data transfer and processing.
Instead of 1000's of PC's with Office Packages the central processor can
contain Java type modules called up as they are
needed. An open architecture makes it easy to Lotus Notes, Plug and Play
graphics, video, voice mail and 1000's of other applications. Much of the
set up work can be done off site, by contractors and agents. This is NETSCAPE'S
design. Servers work on many platforms with open plug and play features
for clients.
The browser is just a central actor in the plug and play game.
Software and Communications companies integrate networks within and between
servers.
They can also provide the servers. Ross Parot, EDS, found a lot
of companies and contractors for the huge public sector didn't want to
buy hardware and have all the installation and up date head-aches but wanted
plug and play complete turn key systems. Public access servers can provide
most of what small, and middle size business need. As many accountants,
lawyers, travel agents, banks, brokers, office supplies and services, schools,
libraries, and the 25 % of the yellow page economy, services which can
be done remotely will be done remotely ( excludes therapeutic massage,
and most medical hands on stuff such as setting bones but not all diagnosis
and prescription ) that can be provided at a distance will be provided
but they do not replace hands on local contacts.
Peter Drucker pointed out that in Europe the new did not replace the old
but exists side by side. He guessed that 25 % of freight still goes on
barges and canals built in the 18'th century, most freight traffic moves
on railroads built in the 19'th with 20'th century bullet trains, and still
room for 20'th century trucks, and air-freight. One transport system does
not completely replace another but each one has a different place in market.
Telephones, cables, satellites, cellar transponders, all will continue
to have a place on the Internet. Servers are getting fatter and fatter
while terminals may get thinner and thinner. Big servers connected to bigger
servers, thinner PC connected to fatter servers but some PC will not have
connections but stand alone, others will only be smart terminals.
Microsoft's packages are not very open, in fact, MS have behaved much like
IBM in using their OS (operating system) as a tool to control applications.
Word is not better than Word Perfect but it had a strategic advantage in
Office packages and with an install base by machine manufactures. You can't
replace modules very easily if at all. You can't use one presentation with
different graphic interface to different page makers and word processors.
This unnatural restrictive system can not last for long. Go short on MS
and long on Netscape, Oracle, Novell/Corel/WordPerfect IBM and the 1000's
of plug and play providers.
EPCOT II is a design for an open classroom/office

The Internet craze has hit school systems filling educators everywhere
with hope and despair .New options in alternative
educational methodology are now at the tips of everyone's fingers,
but what's in store for teachers who will have to change their traditional
teaching ways if they are to keep up with even the youngest of their students?
Fortunately, PBS has taken an aggressive step in helping teachers - from
novices to experts - cope with the onslaught of the Internet.Programs such
as Using and Understanding the Internet, Life on the Internet, Triumph
of the Nerds and their corresponding Web sites are designed to challenge
advanced surfers as well as inform and empower beginners. Beginner courses
include definitions of commonly used terms and answers to frequently asked
questions, as well as tips on how to become a savvy surfer on the Internet.

you can spend some time in cyber schoolhttp://www.pbs.org/tconnex/index.htmlor
come back later for a visit to the resources mentioned. It's hard to maintain
a linear focus, there is a tendency to wander off. That's fine but when
you are ready, lets continue. At the bottom of the PBS page is a window
with choices of information about their series and their specials. I open
the box and pick Life on the Internet in the specials box. http://www2.pbs.org/internet/

et/index.htmlRE: A proposal for the classroom of the future:I want
to find about $100,000 to build a prototype Internet classroom. We will
take a tour of what that classroom may look like but first the administrative
idea. When the technology is changing as fast as the Internet ( I don't
believe any technology, even Military has moved so fast - but in both cases
the motivation is the same kill or be killed, survival depends on your
tools and organization ) it is impossible for me to write a detailed plan,
submit it through the grants cycle and then if I get funded in a year,
then do what I had suggested a year ago. So we need a contract with NSF,
PBS, Digital ( AltaVista ), Microsoft, IBM. motorola, Intel, Carnegie Endowment
for the Advancement of Teaching or other public or private fund to support
us.
The contract forms a management board, decisions are made and money
is spent. Someone out there knows how to do this.It is quite possible to
get donations, beta software or have to pay high prices. A VDO server could
be free or $ 10,000 or some clone could come along. We also need a real
radio site, and hot Java scripting. We have the
site synergy.trevista.com.
The prototype will be better than anything I've
seen out there but I may discover a whole new concept tomorrow.
The model
I have in mind uses the graphic and search of AltaVista, the sounds of
real audio and the pictures of VDO. It's a living and connected textbook.
The
board controls the expenditures. We may cost more or less then any plan
could predict.
The important point of not getting kick backs, paying bribes,
stealing, and being effective is more likely than under the standard grant
conditions.

From: domorgan@awinc.com; Donna Morgan I'm trying to see the advantages
of this method over a list serve and can think of a few: 1. No need to
set up a list serve in the first place.
2. No need to monitor the list serve, e.g. subscribe, unsubscribe.
3. Easy access to past messages without accessing the archive on a list
serve.
4. Encourages the habit of seeking out messages at a specific site that
may be linked to other sites of related interest, e.g. other info for Internet
101.
5. Encourages the use of an Internet browser rather than relying on a mail
program. MESSAGE BOARD important to check in
TO ADD A MESSAGE:
Write your message and save wordpad
or note pad with a long file name on your desktop. In the location window
of Netscape ( MS Internet explorer does not work ) put this;
In the location window of your browser put this; ftp://wiredbrain:synergy@ftp.wiredbrain.com

BECOME A PARTNER - let's do synergy
together
RE: A proposal: A classroom on the
Internet
TITLE: GVS-IC
The Global Village
Schools - an interactive classroom GOALS: Development of a model prototype
Internet classroom that will: 1.) Test teaching learning methods for different
types of content and methods over the Internet and Intranets. 2.) Be a
test bed of Research and development of interactive software using current
state of the art systems and possible new developments as they come along.
LOGIC:
Rational, there is no one right way.
The concept of remote education
links and training is changing too quickly for most traditional technology
transfer methods.
There is a clear and present need for experimental prototypes
available to institutions and individuals to use, on which to test their
specific application and gain the the valuable experience they need before
they plan and install their own systems or subsystems. On a continuous
basis, there is an intense need to beta test a whole range of alternatives,
encourage others to try them under different circumstances, such as bands
capacities, equipment configurations and protocols . It doesn't make sense
for everyone to try to get on the internet with educational
links or training systems, completely on their own. PARTNERSHIP means
synergy - the whole becomes more than the sum of the parts. METHODS: GVS-IC
proposal calls for the establishment of sites that work together as a network
using interactive systems for remote training and educational
services.
There is about one trillion dollars of such activity world
wide. GVS-IC's look for partners, from industry, government, trainers,
non-profit organizations. We will work with the leading software and hardware
firms, such as Netscape, Microsoft, Digital AltaVista, Corporate Universities
( see http://www.wiredbrain.net/ Internet.htmhocf.htm
) Support will come from the Office of Naval Research, Advanced Research
Projects Agency DOD being the biggest training and educational
institution in the world,
The Open University in Great Britain, Public
Broadcasting here and in Australia and Canada, and others major and minor
providers and users ( see the lists on hocf.htm and tour above. (WEBTV,
CNN, VDO, etc. see below on the tour ) OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS:
There is no
program plan only a process.
The GVS-IC will have a board of directors
made up of partners, sponsors, users, and members of the publics involved
on a global basis. Grant proposals, requests for shared services, income
from fees and licenses, all business affairs will be controlled by the
board. Since it is impossible to forecast actual operational requirement,
the board will hold funds in reserve, and project teams, individuals, internal
or external organizations or individuals, will make proposals to the board.
The board can grant none, all or part of the resources requested. Performance
standards are set with both parties agreement. Work will be done on a global
basis. We have a test site but many locations could be used. GVS-IC could
start with a few thousand or a million dollars.
There is no reason to have
any physical facilities or common location. We will set up work-groups
on remote networks. VISION: unlimited .... what we can imagine today is
all ready being done - we will be doing next year what we can not even
imagine today. I could not have last year even thought of what is possible
now and that will be just as true for this time next year !

RE: Synergy, Clients, Servers, highways
and byways;
Big companies have fat Intranets,
extra-nets and Internet lines, with light NC (network computers). Heavy
duty servers are providing almost everything in data transfer and processing.
Instead of 1000's of PC's with Office Packages the central processor can
contain Java type modules called up as they are
needed. An open architecture makes it easy to Lotus Notes, Plug and Play
graphics, video, voice mail and 1000's of other applications. Much of the
set up work can be done off site, by contractors and agents. This is NETSCAPE'S
design. Servers work on many platforms with open plug and play features
for clients.
The browser is just a central actor in the plug and play game.
Software and Communications companies integrate networks within and between
servers.
They can also provide the servers. Ross Parot, EDS, found a lot
of companies and contractors for the huge public sector didn't want to
buy hardware and have all the installation and up date head-aches but wanted
plug and play complete turn key systems. Public access servers can provide
most of what small, and middle size business need. As many accountants,
lawyers, travel agents, banks, brokers, office supplies and services, schools,
libraries, and the 25 % of the yellow page economy, services which can
be done remotely will be done remotely ( excludes therapeutic massage,
and most medical hands on stuff such as setting bones but not all diagnosis
and prescription ) that can be provided at a distance will be provided
but they do not replace hands on local contacts.
Peter Drucker pointed out that in Europe the new did not replace the old
but exists side by side. He guessed that 25 % of freight still goes on
barges and canals built in the 18'th century, most freight traffic moves
on railroads built in the 19'th with 20'th century bullet trains, and still
room for 20'th century trucks, and air-freight. One transport system does
not completely replace another but each one has a different place in market.
Telephones, cables, satellites, cellar transponders, all will continue
to have a place on the Internet. Servers are getting fatter and fatter
while terminals may get thinner and thinner. Big servers connected to bigger
servers, thinner PC connected to fatter servers but some PC will not have
connections but stand alone, others will only be smart terminals.
Microsoft's packages are not very open, in fact, MS have behaved much like
IBM in using their OS (operating system) as a tool to control applications.
Word is not better than Word Perfect but it had a strategic advantage in
Office packages and with an install base by machine manufactures. You can't
replace modules very easily if at all. You can't use one presentation with
different graphic interface to different page makers and word processors.
This unnatural restrictive system can not last for long. Go short on MS
and long on Netscape, Oracle, Novell/Corel/WordPerfect IBM and the 1000's
of plug and play providers.
EPCOT II is a design for an open classroom/office
where the really small business and individual can access the plug and
play of the big guys. A communications company provides server space, Netscape
and it's friends and relatives provide plug and play applications - ForumForum,
cool talk, IRC, white board, phone mail, video, real audio, et all
Go to directory, categories, education, page 5, synergy: Since we will
maybe here only a month or so, I would really really like it if you would
use the ForumForum. Go in and set up conference, documents, newspaper,
mess around. We will only learn by doing. You can find out what this conference
program has to offer and we can see how people can use it. &

teaching ways if they are to keep up with even the youngest of their students?
Fortunately, PBS has taken an aggressive step in helping teachers - from
novices to experts - cope with the onslaught of the Internet.Programs such
as Using and Understanding the Internet, Life on the Internet, Triumph
of the Nerds and their corresponding Web sites are designed to challenge
advanced surfers as well as inform and empower beginners. Beginner courses
include definitions of commonly used terms and answers to frequently asked

a linear focus, there is a tendency to wander off. That's fine but when
you are ready, lets continue. At the bottom of the PBS page is a window

et/index.htmlRE: A proposal for the classroom of the future:I want
to find about $100,000 to build a prototype Internet classroom. We will
take a tour of what that classroom may look like but first the administrative
idea. When the technology is changing as fast as the Internet ( I don't
believe any technology, even Military has moved so fast - but in both cases
the motivation is the same kill or be killed, survival depends on your
tools and organization ) it is impossible for me to write a detailed plan,
submit it through the grants cycle and then if I get funded in a year,
then do what I had suggested a year ago. So we need a contract with NSF,
PBS, Digital ( AltaVista ), Microsoft, IBM. motorola, Intel, Carnegie Endowment
for the Advancement of Teaching or other public or private fund to support
us.
The contract forms a management board, decisions are made and money
is spent. Someone out there knows how to do this.It is quite possible to
get donations, beta software or have to pay high prices. A VDO server could
be free or $ 10,000 or some clone could come along. We also need a real
radio site, and hot Java scripting. We have the
site synergy.trevista.com.
The prototype will be better than anything I've
seen out there but I may discover a whole new concept tomorrow.
The model
I have in mind uses the graphic and search of AltaVista, the sounds of
real audio and the pictures of VDO. It's a living and connected textbook.
The
board controls the expenditures. We may cost more or less then any plan
could predict.
The important point of not getting kick backs, paying bribes,
stealing, and being effective is more likely than under the standard grant
conditions.

From: domorgan@awinc.com; Donna Morgan I'm trying to see the advantages
of this method over a list serve and can think of a few: 1. No need to
set up a list serve in the first place.
2. No need to monitor the list serve, e.g. subscribe, unsubscribe.
3. Easy access to past messages without accessing the archive on a list
serve.
4. Encourages the habit of seeking out messages at a specific site that
may be linked to other sites of related interest, e.g. other info for Internet
101.
5. Encourages the use of an Internet browser rather than relying on a mail
program. MESSAGE BOARD important to check in

BECOME A PARTNER - let's do synergy
together
RE: A proposal: A classroom on the
Internet
TITLE: GVS-IC
The Global Village
Schools - an interactive classroom GOALS: Development of a model prototype
Internet classroom that will: 1.) Test teaching learning methods for different
types of content and methods over the Internet and Intranets. 2.) Be a
test bed of Research and development of interactive software using current
state of the art systems and possible new developments as they come along.
LOGIC:
Rational, there is no one right way.
The concept of remote education
links and training is changing too quickly for most traditional technology
transfer methods.
There is a clear and present need for experimental prototypes
available to institutions and individuals to use, on which to test their
specific application and gain the the valuable experience they need before
they plan and install their own systems or subsystems. On a continuous
basis, there is an intense need to beta test a whole range of alternatives,
encourage others to try them under different circumstances, such as bands
capacities, equipment configurations and protocols . It doesn't make sense
for everyone to try to get on the internet with educational
links or training systems, completely on their own. PARTNERSHIP means
synergy - the whole becomes more than the sum of the parts. METHODS: GVS-IC
proposal calls for the establishment of sites that work together as a network
using interactive systems for remote training and educational
services.
There is about one trillion dollars of such activity world
wide. GVS-IC's look for partners, from industry, government, trainers,
non-profit organizations. We will work with the leading software and hardware
firms, such as Netscape, Microsoft, Digital AltaVista, Corporate Universities
( see http://www.wiredbrain.net/ Internet.htmhocf.htm
) Support will come from the Office of Naval Research, Advanced Research
Projects Agency DOD being the biggest training and educational
institution in the world,
The Open University in Great Britain, Public
Broadcasting here and in Australia and Canada, and others major and minor
providers and users ( see the lists on hocf.htm and tour above. (WEBTV,
CNN, VDO, etc. see below on the tour ) OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS:
There is no
program plan only a process.
The GVS-IC will have a board of directors
made up of partners, sponsors, users, and members of the publics involved
on a global basis. Grant proposals, requests for shared services, income
from fees and licenses, all business affairs will be controlled by the
board. Since it is impossible to forecast actual operational requirement,
the board will hold funds in reserve, and project teams, individuals, internal
or external organizations or individuals, will make proposals to the board.
The board can grant none, all or part of the resources requested. Performance
standards are set with both parties agreement. Work will be done on a global
basis. We have a test site but many locations could be used. GVS-IC could
start with a few thousand or a million dollars.
There is no reason to have
any physical facilities or common location. We will set up work-groups
on remote networks. VISION: unlimited .... what we can imagine today is
all ready being done - we will be doing next year what we can not even
imagine today. I could not have last year even thought of what is possible
now and that will be just as true for this time next year !

RE: Synergy, Clients, Servers, highways
and byways;
Big companies have fat Intranets,
extra-nets and Internet lines, with light NC (network computers). Heavy
duty servers are providing almost everything in data transfer and processing.
Instead of 1000's of PC's with Office Packages the central processor can
contain Java type modules called up as they are
needed. An open architecture makes it easy to Lotus Notes, Plug and Play
graphics, video, voice mail and 1000's of other applications. Much of the
set up work can be done off site, by contractors and agents. This is NETSCAPE'S
design. Servers work on many platforms with open plug and play features
for clients.
The browser is just a central actor in the plug and play game.
Software and Communications companies integrate networks within and between
servers.
They can also provide the servers. Ross Parot, EDS, found a lot
of companies and contractors for the huge public sector didn't want to
buy hardware and have all the installation and up date head-aches but wanted
plug and play complete turn key systems. Public access servers can provide
most of what small, and middle size business need. As many accountants,
lawyers, travel agents, banks, brokers, office supplies and services, schools,
libraries, and the 25 % of the yellow page economy, services which can
be done remotely will be done remotely ( excludes therapeutic massage,
and most medical hands on stuff such as setting bones but not all diagnosis
and prescription ) that can be provided at a distance will be provided
but they do not replace hands on local contacts.
Peter Drucker pointed out that in Europe the new did not replace the old
but exists side by side. He guessed that 25 % of freight still goes on
barges and canals built in the 18'th century, most freight traffic moves
on railroads built in the 19'th with 20'th century bullet trains, and still
room for 20'th century trucks, and air-freight. One transport system does
not completely replace another but each one has a different place in market.
Telephones, cables, satellites, cellar transponders, all will continue
to have a place on the Internet. Servers are getting fatter and fatter
while terminals may get thinner and thinner. Big servers connected to bigger
servers, thinner PC connected to fatter servers but some PC will not have
connections but stand alone, others will only be smart terminals.
Microsoft's packages are not very open, in fact, MS have behaved much like
IBM in using their OS (operating system) as a tool to control applications.
Word is not better than Word Perfect but it had a strategic advantage in
Office packages and with an install base by machine manufactures. You can't
replace modules very easily if at all. You can't use one presentation with
different graphic interface to different page makers and word processors.
This unnatural restrictive system can not last for long. Go short on MS
and long on Netscape, Oracle, Novell/Corel/WordPerfect IBM and the 1000's
of plug and play providers.
EPCOT II is a design for an open classroom/office
where the really small business and individual can access the plug and
play of the big guys. A communications company provides server space, Netscape
and it's friends and relatives provide plug and play applications - ForumForum,
cool talk, IRC, white board, phone mail, video, real audio, et all
Go to directory, categories, education, page 5, synergy: Since we will
maybe here only a month or so, I would really really like it if you would
use the ForumForum. Go in and set up conference, documents, newspaper,
mess around. We will only learn by doing. You can find out what this conference
program has to offer and we can see how people can use it. &

NARRATIVE COMMUNICATIONS No
more waiting for graphics and audio files to download - Narrative's Enliven
viewer, a Netscape Navigator plug-in for Windows, gives you streaming multimedia
on the Web. Now you need to down load the plug-in and use Netscape 2 -
( I had to get a copy from 205.218.156.36 the netscape ftp ( much faster
than their download pages )
Then it worked ( after several tries and a reboot
) plays a video type CD talking page.
The stream in real audio has now
become a video play with buffer. Rather than download, setup application
and play - it can run off the web pages. NEXT STOP http://www.timecast.com/

on a PC 486DX, 80 with a 14.4 modem ( or digital connection to replace the analog ) connected by dial up to ATT worldnet.
I have a number of plug ins. Lets start in PBS. http://www.pbs.org/
. In Netscape or explorer you can open more than one window. Use
File then New Web Browser to have the Tour.htm in one window and the PBS
in another.
Then you can use Window and switch from one to the other. You
see a button " Learn with PBS" lets go there. http://www.
pbs.org/insidepbs/learningservices/
Then to CyberSchool:http://www.pbs.org/tconnex/feature.html
It says:
The Internet craze has hit school systems filling educators everywhere
with hope and despair .New options in alternative
educational methodology are now at the tips of everyone's fingers,
but what's in store for teachers who will have to change their traditional
teaching ways if they are to keep up with even the youngest of their students?
Fortunately, PBS has taken an aggressive step in helping teachers - from
novices to experts - cope with the onslaught of the Internet.Programs such
as Using and Understanding the Internet, Life on the Internet, Triumph
of the Nerds and their corresponding Web sites are designed to challenge
advanced surfers as well as inform and empower beginners. Beginner courses
include definitions of commonly used terms and answers to frequently asked
questions, as well as tips on how to become a savvy surfer on the Internet.
Please see below for a list of helpful links. http://www.pbs.org/tconnex/feature.html#linksNow
you can spend some time in cyber schoolhttp://www.pbs.org/tconnex/index.htmlor
come back later for a visit to the resources mentioned. It's hard to maintain
a linear focus, there is a tendency to wander off. That's fine but when
you are ready, lets continue. At the bottom of the PBS page is a window
with choices of information about their series and their specials. I open
the box and pick Life on the Internet in the specials box. http://www2.pbs.org/internet/
then on the left "Live Video" for which you will need VDO plug in at after
that return to http://www.vdolive.com/download/
http://www2.pbs.org/in
ternet/video/
then the video library and look at Video Students.When
two men, Canadian Richard Weber and Russian Misha Malakhov, decided to
become the first to ski - unaided - to the North Pole, they were joined
on their http://www.wiredbrain.net/documents/JOURney by a handful of students
from Confederation High School in Ottawa, Canada.http://www2.pbs

et/index.htmlRE: A proposal for the classroom of the future:I want
to find about $100,000 to build a prototype Internet classroom. We will
take a tour of what that classroom may look like but first the administrative
idea. When the technology is changing as fast as the Internet ( I don't
believe any technology, even Military has moved so fast - but in both cases
the motivation is the same kill or be killed, survival depends on your
tools and organization ) it is impossible for me to write a detailed plan,
submit it through the grants cycle and then if I get funded in a year,
then do what I had suggested a year ago. So we need a contract with NSF,
PBS, Digital ( AltaVista ), Microsoft, IBM. motorola, Intel, Carnegie Endowment
for the Advancement of Teaching or other public or private fund to support
us.
The contract forms a management board, decisions are made and money
is spent. Someone out there knows how to do this.It is quite possible to
get donations, beta software or have to pay high prices. A VDO server could
be free or $ 10,000 or some clone could come along. We also need a real
radio site, and hot Java scripting. We have the
site synergy.trevista.com.
The prototype will be better than anything I've
seen out there but I may discover a whole new concept tomorrow.
The model
I have in mind uses the graphic and search of AltaVista, the sounds of
real audio and the pictures of VDO. It's a living and connected textbook.
The
board controls the expenditures. We may cost more or less then any plan
could predict.
The important point of not getting kick backs, paying bribes,
stealing, and being effective is more likely than under the standard grant
conditions.

From: domorgan@awinc.com; Donna Morgan I'm trying to see the advantages
of this method over a list serve and can think of a few: 1. No need to
set up a list serve in the first place.
2. No need to monitor the list serve, e.g. subscribe, unsubscribe.
3. Easy access to past messages without accessing the archive on a list
serve.
4. Encourages the habit of seeking out messages at a specific site that
may be linked to other sites of related interest, e.g. other info for Internet
101.
5. Encourages the use of an Internet browser rather than relying on a mail
program. MESSAGE BOARD important to check in
TO ADD A MESSAGE:
Write your message and save wordpad
or note pad with a long file name on your desktop. In the location window
of Netscape ( MS Internet explorer does not work ) put this;
In the location window of your browser put this; ftp://wiredbrain:synergy@ftp.wiredbrain.com
Go to your desktop. Drag and drop the message into the browser, made small
enough on your desk top. Use the area of the window at the top,
The desktop
is at the very top of windows explorer where it says CURRENT DIRECTORY

not in the file area ( it will try to read the files) or just hold ( don't
let go) over the icon in tool bar. BANG you have posted to the message

BECOME A PARTNER - let's do synergy
together
RE: A proposal: A classroom on the
Internet
TITLE: GVS-IC
The Global Village
Schools - an interactive classroom GOALS: Development of a model prototype
Internet classroom that will: 1.) Test teaching learning methods for different
types of content and methods over the Internet and Intranets. 2.) Be a
test bed of Research and development of interactive software using current
state of the art systems and possible new developments as they come along.
LOGIC:
Rational, there is no one right way.
The concept of remote education
links and training is changing too quickly for most traditional technology
transfer methods.
There is a clear and present need for experimental prototypes
available to institutions and individuals to use, on which to test their
specific application and gain the the valuable experience they need before
they plan and install their own systems or subsystems. On a continuous
basis, there is an intense need to beta test a whole range of alternatives,
encourage others to try them under different circumstances, such as bands
capacities, equipment configurations and protocols . It doesn't make sense
for everyone to try to get on the internet with educational
links or training systems, completely on their own. PARTNERSHIP means
synergy - the whole becomes more than the sum of the parts. METHODS: GVS-IC
proposal calls for the establishment of sites that work together as a network
using interactive systems for remote training and educational
services.
There is about one trillion dollars of such activity world
wide. GVS-IC's look for partners, from industry, government, trainers,
non-profit organizations. We will work with the leading software and hardware
firms, such as Netscape, Microsoft, Digital AltaVista, Corporate Universities
( see http://www.wiredbrain.net/ Internet.htmhocf.htm
) Support will come from the Office of Naval Research, Advanced Research
Projects Agency DOD being the biggest training and educational
institution in the world,
The Open University in Great Britain, Public
Broadcasting here and in Australia and Canada, and others major and minor
providers and users ( see the lists on hocf.htm and tour above. (WEBTV,
CNN, VDO, etc. see below on the tour ) OPERATIONAL SYSTEMS:
There is no
program plan only a process.
The GVS-IC will have a board of directors
made up of partners, sponsors, users, and members of the publics involved
on a global basis. Grant proposals, requests for shared services, income
from fees and licenses, all business affairs will be controlled by the
board. Since it is impossible to forecast actual operational requirement,
the board will hold funds in reserve, and project teams, individuals, internal
or external organizations or individuals, will make proposals to the board.
The board can grant none, all or part of the resources requested. Performance
standards are set with both parties agreement. Work will be done on a global
basis. We have a test site but many locations could be used. GVS-IC could
start with a few thousand or a million dollars.
There is no reason to have
any physical facilities or common location. We will set up work-groups
on remote networks. VISION: unlimited .... what we can imagine today is
all ready being done - we will be doing next year what we can not even
imagine today. I could not have last year even thought of what is possible
now and that will be just as true for this time next year !

I think we can set up a work group
on the internet TCP/IP dial up connection. This would be the model for
the virtual office or classroom, connection between individuals and LANS
with the internet - Intranets.
Lets give it a try. SYNERGY-NET

RE: Synergy, Clients, Servers, highways
and byways;
Big companies have fat Intranets,
extra-nets and Internet lines, with light NC (network computers). Heavy
duty servers are providing almost everything in data transfer and processing.
Instead of 1000's of PC's with Office Packages the central processor can
contain Java type modules called up as they are
needed. An open architecture makes it easy to Lotus Notes, Plug and Play
graphics, video, voice mail and 1000's of other applications. Much of the
set up work can be done off site, by contractors and agents. This is NETSCAPE'S
design. Servers work on many platforms with open plug and play features
for clients.
The browser is just a central actor in the plug and play game.
Software and Communications companies integrate networks within and between
servers.
They can also provide the servers. Ross Parot, EDS, found a lot
of companies and contractors for the huge public sector didn't want to
buy hardware and have all the installation and up date head-aches but wanted
plug and play complete turn key systems. Public access servers can provide
most of what small, and middle size business need. As many accountants,
lawyers, travel agents, banks, brokers, office supplies and services, schools,
libraries, and the 25 % of the yellow page economy, services which can
be done remotely will be done remotely ( excludes therapeutic massage,
and most medical hands on stuff such as setting bones but not all diagnosis
and prescription ) that can be provided at a distance will be provided
but they do not replace hands on local contacts.
Peter Drucker pointed out that in Europe the new did not replace the old
but exists side by side. He guessed that 25 % of freight still goes on
barges and canals built in the 18'th century, most freight traffic moves
on railroads built in the 19'th with 20'th century bullet trains, and still
room for 20'th century trucks, and air-freight. One transport system does
not completely replace another but each one has a different place in market.
Telephones, cables, satellites, cellar transponders, all will continue
to have a place on the Internet. Servers are getting fatter and fatter
while terminals may get thinner and thinner. Big servers connected to bigger
servers, thinner PC connected to fatter servers but some PC will not have
connections but stand alone, others will only be smart terminals.
Microsoft's packages are not very open, in fact, MS have behaved much like
IBM in using their OS (operating system) as a tool to control applications.
Word is not better than Word Perfect but it had a strategic advantage in
Office packages and with an install base by machine manufactures. You can't
replace modules very easily if at all. You can't use one presentation with
different graphic interface to different page makers and word processors.
This unnatural restrictive system can not last for long. Go short on MS
and long on Netscape, Oracle, Novell/Corel/WordPerfect IBM and the 1000's
of plug and play providers.
EPCOT II is a design for an open classroom/office
where the really small business and individual can access the plug and
play of the big guys. A communications company provides server space, Netscape
and it's friends and relatives provide plug and play applications - ForumForum,
cool talk, IRC, white board, phone mail, video, real audio, et all
Go to directory, categories, education, page 5, synergy: Since we will
maybe here only a month or so, I would really really like it if you would
use the ForumForum. Go in and set up conference, documents, newspaper,
mess around. We will only learn by doing. You can find out what this conference
program has to offer and we can see how people can use it. &

The Internet craze has hit school systems filling educators everywhere
with hope and despair .New options in alternative
educational methodology are now at the tips of everyone's fingers,
but what's in store for teachers who will have to change their traditional
teaching ways if they are to keep up with even the youngest of their students?
Fortunately, PBS has taken an aggressive step in helping teachers - from
novices to experts - cope with the onslaught of the Internet.Programs such
as Using and Understanding the Internet, Life on the Internet, Triumph
of the Nerds and their corresponding Web sites are designed to challenge
advanced surfers as well as inform and empower beginners. Beginner courses
include definitions of commonly used terms and answers to frequently asked
questions, as well as tips on how to become a savvy surfer on the Internet.
Please see below for a list of helpful links. http://www.pbs.org/tconnex/feature.html#linksNow
you can spend some time in cyber schoolhttp://www.pbs.org/tconnex/index.htmlor
come back later for a visit to the resources mentioned. It's hard to maintain
a linear focus, there is a tendency to wander off. That's fine but when
you are ready, lets continue. At the bottom of the PBS page is a window
with choices of information about their series and their specials. I open
the box and pick Life on the Internet in the specials box. http://www2.pbs.org/internet/
then on the left "Live Video" for which you will need VDO plug in at after
that return to http://www.vdolive.com/download/
http://www2.pbs.org/in
ternet/video/
then the video library and look at Video Students.When
two men, Canadian Richard Weber and Russian Misha Malakhov, decided to
become the first to ski - unaided - to the North Pole, they were joined
on their http://www.wiredbrain.net/documents/JOURney by a handful of students
from Confederation High School in Ottawa, Canada.http://www2.pbs
.org/internet/ed/story.html then find the clip on http://www2.pbs.org/internet/video/library.html(Look
down the page ) view promo- I hope the Netscape has added to right player

and set VDO to play.NEXT STOP: National GeographicDigitals

to find about $100,000 to build a prototype Internet classroom. We will
take a tour of what that classroom may look like but first the administrative
idea. When the technology is changing as fast as the Internet ( I don't
believe any technology, even Military has moved so fast - but in both cases
the motivation is the same kill or be killed, survival depends on your
tools and organization ) it is impossible for me to write a detailed plan,
submit it through the grants cycle and then if I get funded in a year,
then do what I had suggested a year ago. So we need a contract with NSF,
PBS, Digital ( AltaVista ), Microsoft, IBM. motorola, Intel, Carnegie Endowment
for the Advancement of Teaching or other public or private fund to support
us.
The contract forms a management board, decisions are made and money
is spent. Someone out there knows how to do this.It is quite possible to
get donations, beta software or have to pay high prices. A VDO server could
be free or $ 10,000 or some clone could come along. We also need a real
radio site, and hot Java scripting. We have the
site synergy.trevista.com.
The prototype will be better than anything I've
seen out there but I may discover a whole new concept tomorrow.
The model
I have in mind uses the graphic and search of AltaVista, the sounds of
real audio and the pictures of VDO. It's a living and connected textbook.
The
board controls the expenditures. We may cost more or less then any plan
could predict.
The important point of not getting kick backs, paying bribes,
stealing, and being effective is more likely than under the standard grant
conditions.

to find about $100,000 to build a prototype Internet classroom. We will
take a tour of what that classroom may look like but first the administrative
idea. When the technology is changing as fast as the Internet ( I don't
believe any technology, even Military has moved so fast - but in both cases
the motivation is the same kill or be killed, survival depends on your
tools and organization ) it is impossible for me to write a detailed plan,
submit it through the grants cycle and then if I get funded in a year,
then do what I had suggested a year ago. So we need a contract with NSF,
PBS, Digital ( AltaVista ), Microsoft, IBM. motorola, Intel, Carnegie Endowment
for the Advancement of Teaching or other public or private fund to support
us.
The contract forms a management board, decisions are made and money
is spent. Someone out there knows how to do this.It is quite possible to
get donations, beta software or have to pay high prices. A VDO server could
be free or $ 10,000 or some clone could come along. We also need a real
radio site, and hot Java scripting. We have the
site synergy.trevista.com.
The prototype will be better than anything I've
seen out there but I may discover a whole new concept tomorrow.
The model
I have in mind uses the graphic and search of AltaVista, the sounds of
real audio and the pictures of VDO. It's a living and connected textbook.
The
board controls the expenditures. We may cost more or less then any plan
could predict.

stealing, and being effective is more likely than under the standard grant

to find about $100,000 to build a prototype Internet classroom. We will
take a tour of what that classroom may look like but first the administrative
idea. When the technology is changing as fast as the Internet ( I don't
believe any technology, even Military has moved so fast - but in both cases
the motivation is the same kill or be killed, survival depends on your
tools and organization ) it is impossible for me to write a detailed plan,
submit it through the grants cycle and then if I get funded in a year,
then do what I had suggested a year ago. So we need a contract with NSF,
PBS, Digital ( AltaVista ), Microsoft, IBM. motorola, Intel, Carnegie Endowment
for the Advancement of Teaching or other public or private fund to support
us.
The contract forms a management board, decisions are made and money
is spent. Someone out there knows how to do this.It is quite possible to
get donations, beta software or have to pay high prices. A VDO server could
be free or $ 10,000 or some clone could come along. We also need a real
radio site, and hot Java scripting. We have the
site synergy.trevista.com.
The prototype will be better than anything I've
seen out there but I may discover a whole new concept tomorrow.
The model
I have in mind uses the graphic and search of AltaVista, the sounds of
real audio and the pictures of VDO. It's a living and connected textbook.
The
board controls the expenditures. We may cost more or less then any plan
could predict.

stealing, and being effective is more likely than under the standard grant

to find about $100,000 to build a prototype Internet classroom. We will
take a tour of what that classroom may look like but first the administrative
idea. When the technology is changing as fast as the Internet ( I don't
believe any technology, even Military has moved so fast - but in both cases
the motivation is the same kill or be killed, survival depends on your
tools and organization ) it is impossible for me to write a detailed plan,
submit it through the grants cycle and then if I get funded in a year,
then do what I had suggested a year ago. So we need a contract with NSF,
PBS, Digital ( AltaVista ), Microsoft, IBM. motorola, Intel, Carnegie Endowment
for the Advancement of Teaching or other public or private fund to support
us.
The contract forms a management board, decisions are made and money
is spent. Someone out there knows how to do this.It is quite possible to
get donations, beta software or have to pay high prices. A VDO server could
be free or $ 10,000 or some clone could come along. We also need a real
radio site, and hot Java scripting. We have the
site synergy.trevista.com.
The prototype will be better than anything I've
seen out there but I may discover a whole new concept tomorrow.
The model
I have in mind uses the graphic and search of AltaVista, the sounds of
real audio and the pictures of VDO. It's a living and connected textbook.
The
board controls the expenditures. We may cost more or less then any plan
could predict.

stealing, and being effective is more likely than under the standard grant

to find about $100,000 to build a prototype Internet classroom. We will
take a tour of what that classroom may look like but first the administrative
idea. When the technology is changing as fast as the Internet ( I don't
believe any technology, even Military has moved so fast - but in both cases
the motivation is the same kill or be killed, survival depends on your
tools and organization ) it is impossible for me to write a detailed plan,
submit it through the grants cycle and then if I get funded in a year,
then do what I had suggested a year ago. So we need a contract with NSF,
PBS, Digital ( AltaVista ), Microsoft, IBM. motorola, Intel, Carnegie Endowment
for the Advancement of Teaching or other public or private fund to support
us.
The contract forms a management board, decisions are made and money
is spent. Someone out there knows how to do this.It is quite possible to
get donations, beta software or have to pay high prices. A VDO server could
be free or $ 10,000 or some clone could come along. We also need a real
radio site, and hot Java scripting. We have the
site synergy.trevista.com.
The prototype will be better than anything I've
seen out there but I may discover a whole new concept tomorrow.
The model
I have in mind uses the graphic and search of AltaVista, the sounds of
real audio and the pictures of VDO. It's a living and connected textbook.
The
board controls the expenditures. We may cost more or less then any plan
could predict.
The important point of not getting kick backs, paying bribes,
stealing, and being effective is more likely than under the standard grant
conditions.

idea. When the technology is changing as fast as the Internet ( I don't
believe any technology, even Military has moved so fast - but in both cases
the motivation is the same kill or be killed, survival depends on your
tools and organization ) it is impossible for me to write a detailed plan,
submit it through the grants cycle and then if I get funded in a year,
then do what I had suggested a year ago. So we need a contract with NSF,
PBS, Digital ( AltaVista ), Microsoft, IBM. motorola, Intel, Carnegie Endowment
for the Advancement of Teaching or other public or private fund to support
us.
The contract forms a management board, decisions are made and money
is spent. Someone out there knows how to do this.It is quite possible to
get donations, beta software or have to pay high prices. A VDO server could
be free or $ 10,000 or some clone could come along. We also need a real

to find about $100,000 to build a prototype Internet classroom. We will
take a tour of what that classroom may look like but first the administrative
idea. When the technology is changing as fast as the Internet ( I don't
believe any technology, even Military has moved so fast - but in both cases
the motivation is the same kill or be killed, survival depends on your
tools and organization ) it is impossible for me to write a detailed plan,
submit it through the grants cycle and then if I get funded in a year,
then do what I had suggested a year ago. So we need a contract with NSF,
PBS, Digital ( AltaVista ), Microsoft, IBM. motorola, Intel, Carnegie Endowment
for the Advancement of Teaching or other public or private fund to support
us.
The contract forms a management board, decisions are made and money
is spent. Someone out there knows how to do this.It is quite possible to
get donations, beta software or have to pay high prices. A VDO server could
be free or $ 10,000 or some clone could come along. We also need a real
radio site, and hot Java scripting. We have the
site synergy.trevista.com.
The prototype will be better than anything I've
seen out there but I may discover a whole new concept tomorrow.
The model
I have in mind uses the graphic and search of AltaVista, the sounds of
real audio and the pictures of VDO. It's a living and connected textbook.
The
board controls the expenditures. We may cost more or less then any plan
could predict.
The important point of not getting kick backs, paying bribes,
stealing, and being effective is more likely than under the standard grant
conditions.

SurfWatch software helps parents, educators and employers reduce the risk
of children and others uncovering sexually explicit material on the Internet.
Please use the links below to find out more about our company and products.
SurfWatch is a true alternative to Internet censorship. On June 12, 1996,
a three justice panel in Philadelphia ruled the Communications Decency
Act unconstitutional, in part due to testimony by SurfWatch. We're helping
protect free speech - you can too! PBS --- I am using Netscape Gold 3b
on a PC 486DX, 80 with a 14.4 modem ( or digital connection to replace the analog ) connected by dial up to ATT worldnet.
I have a number of plug ins. Lets start in PBS. http://www.pbs.org/
. In Netscape or explorer you can open more than one window. Use
File then New Web Browser to have the Tour.htm in one window and the PBS
in another.
Then you can use Window and switch from one to the other. You
see a button " Learn with PBS" lets go there. http://www.
pbs.org/insidepbs/learningservices/
Then to CyberSchool:http://www.pbs.org/tconnex/feature.html
It says:
The Internet craze has hit school systems filling educators everywhere
with hope and despair .New options in alternative
educational methodology are now at the tips of everyone's fingers,
but what's in store for teachers who will have to change their traditional
teaching ways if they are to keep up with even the youngest of their students?
Fortunately, PBS has taken an aggressive step in helping teachers - from
novices to experts - cope with the onslaught of the Internet.Programs such
as Using and Understanding the Internet, Life on the Internet, Triumph
of the Nerds and their corresponding Web sites are designed to challenge
advanced surfers as well as inform and empower beginners. Beginner courses
include definitions of commonly used terms and answers to frequently asked

to find about $100,000 to build a prototype Internet classroom. We will
take a tour of what that classroom may look like but first the administrative
idea. When the technology is changing as fast as the Internet ( I don't
believe any technology, even Military has moved so fast - but in both cases
the motivation is the same kill or be killed, survival depends on your
tools and organization ) it is impossible for me to write a detailed plan,
submit it through the grants cycle and then if I get funded in a year,
then do what I had suggested a year ago. So we need a contract with NSF,
PBS, Digital ( AltaVista ), Microsoft, IBM. motorola, Intel, Carnegie Endowment
for the Advancement of Teaching or other public or private fund to support
us.
The contract forms a management board, decisions are made and money
is spent. Someone out there knows how to do this.It is quite possible to
get donations, beta software or have to pay high prices. A VDO server could
be free or $ 10,000 or some clone could come along. We also need a real
radio site, and hot Java scripting. We have the
site synergy.trevista.com.
The prototype will be better than anything I've
seen out there but I may discover a whole new concept tomorrow.
The model
I have in mind uses the graphic and search of AltaVista, the sounds of
real audio and the pictures of VDO. It's a living and connected textbook.
The
board controls the expenditures. We may cost more or less then any plan
could predict.
The important point of not getting kick backs, paying bribes,
stealing, and being effective is more likely than under the standard grant
conditions.

is home plate. You can find most of what you want from here. It replaces
complex bookmarks. ( block copy and paste)AltaVista gives you access to
the largest Web index: 30 million pages found on 225,000 servers, and three
million articles from 14,000 Usenet news groups. It is accessed over 12
million times per weekday. Use the button at the bottom AltaVista Sostware
to get to http://altavista.software.digital.com/
Then
if your Netscape as been up graded to Java use the
button at bottom to open frames version. Now this is something to see.
Use the tabs at the side to go to site map. Think about this format as
a lesson plan. History, more information, step 1,2,3 it's very powerful

et/index.htmlRE: A proposal for the classroom of the future:I want
to find about $100,000 to build a prototype Internet classroom. We will
take a tour of what that classroom may look like but first the administrative
idea. When the technology is changing as fast as the Internet ( I don't
believe any technology, even Military has moved so fast - but in both cases
the motivation is the same kill or be killed, survival depends on your
tools and organization ) it is impossible for me to write a detailed plan,
submit it through the grants cycle and then if I get funded in a year,
then do what I had suggested a year ago. So we need a contract with NSF,
PBS, Digital ( AltaVista ), Microsoft, IBM. motorola, Intel, Carnegie Endowment
for the Advancement of Teaching or other public or private fund to support
us.
The contract forms a management board, decisions are made and money
is spent. Someone out there knows how to do this.It is quite possible to
get donations, beta software or have to pay high prices. A VDO server could
be free or $ 10,000 or some clone could come along. We also need a real
radio site, and hot Java scripting. We have the
site synergy.trevista.com.
The prototype will be better than anything I've
seen out there but I may discover a whole new concept tomorrow.
The model
I have in mind uses the graphic and search of AltaVista, the sounds of
real audio and the pictures of VDO. It's a living and connected textbook.
The
board controls the expenditures. We may cost more or less then any plan
could predict.
The important point of not getting kick backs, paying bribes,
stealing, and being effective is more likely than under the standard grant
conditions.

From: domorgan@awinc.com; Donna Morgan I'm trying to see the advantages
of this method over a list serve and can think of a few: 1. No need to
set up a list serve in the first place.
2. No need to monitor the list serve, e.g. subscribe, unsubscribe.
3. Easy access to past messages without accessing the archive on a list
serve.
4. Encourages the habit of seeking out messages at a specific site that
may be linked to other sites of related interest, e.g. other info for Internet
101.
5. Encourages the use of an Internet browser rather than relying on a mail
program. MESSAGE BOARD important to check in
