From Education, Research and Institutional Models for Universities in the Next Millenium Seminar at University of Houston -- May 10 99. by Geoffrey C. Fox


1 1) New curriculum for computer science centered on Internetics and its implications for science communication and teaching.
2 2) New approaches to distance education which could change the roles of educational institutions and personnel in areas from K-12 through lifelong learning.
3 3) New approaches to computing environments which will enable more productivity and hence accelerate integration of computation into many fields.
4 4) Shift of roles between industry and academia and difficulties of University research teams working on accepted "Internet Time" for commercial innovation.
5 5) Relevance of distance education to curriculum changing with "Internet Time".
6 6) Changing definitions of interdisciplinary programs (such as computational science) and implications for traditional fields such as physics, which are seeing declining student interest.
