Foil 6 So putting these ideas together for Distance Education

From Overview of Shared Places on the Web XML Developers Conference Montreal -- August 19-20 1999. by Geoffrey C. Fox, Lukasz Beca, Marek Podgorny
We have curricula authored in some fashion and placed on the Web -- it is shared by sharing specification of current Web Page
  • At simplest this is URL but also supported using JavaScript API and Shared Web Page Events are:
  • Shared Scrolling position
  • Shared Pointer as DHTML layer
We have shared client side C++ object -- the digital audio-video conferencing subsystem
We have several shared Java applets
  • One or more Chat rooms
  • Whiteboard
  • "Raised Hand" / Quiz applets for specialized teacher-student interactions
