So putting these ideas together for Distance Education

• 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
