Technologies and Issues for Virtual University
Given by Geoffrey C. Fox at HPDC95 Tutorial Pentagon City on August 1 1995. Foils prepared July 29,1995
- This presentation sets the application (in this case education) backdrop for the HPDC95 Tutorial on the use of Web based technologies for education
- i.e. for the Virtual School (K-12 classroom) and the Virtual University
- We assume that Living Textbook, Phy105/106 material (on-line screendumps) and InfoVision and WebServer discussions are also used
- We describe uses of NII/GII in education, relationships with edutainment, advantages of digital versus analog, overseas as well as U.S.A.. delivery, role of Geographical Information Systems,
role of Interactive and other simulations
- We look at current as well as future Web Technologies and the implications for presentation of scholarly work and the curriculum
This mixed presentation uses parts of the following base foilsets which can also
be looked at on their own!
