Foil 19 Leveraging Collaborative Tools

From Master Set of Foils for 1996 Session of CPS615 PET Training Session DoD HPC Modernization UGC -- June 2 98. by Geoffrey C. Fox


At K-14 education level, dominant emphasis is "building learning communities" and tools to support collaborative learning
  • Fully interactive; semi-interactive (as in MOO model) or possibly asynchronous
  • Working through NCSA Alliance with NSF CILT center
Web collaboration is central to many other applications
Thus there are many leverage points
  • Synchronous teaching a good place for early deployment of collaborative tools as relatively structured and so less sensitive to immaturity of systems
