I got an AOL message from Dr. Stephen Eskow, EUNsteve who
said heknew Dr. Day. Attached a letter from EUNsteve (AOL) Proposal "On-line Classes in Social
Sciences"
Thank you for your approval of an demonstration held at
the WestCampus of NETSCAPE.
The HOMEPAGE systems are mostly up
andrunning.
The format will be influenced by how students us
it. Will therebe any announcement of a WWW social science class in the
Fall? Wecan have students from around the world.
There maybe
special needsstudents who could benefit from at home classes.
The HOMEPAGE services cost about $600 for the first class
(includeshardware, software, hook-up fees and editorial work on
several homepages that set up the classroom.
The second class would
be $300 (15weeks classes), all the rest at $150.
The teacher should
get at least$1200 a class plus something for getting workbook
materials on a FTPfiles. I work with groups that look up instructions for
the activities.
Theyhave up to 15 hands-on active learning experiences. It's
like lab reports.Remember I use a point system, (so many points for the
grade) aportfolios and journals for presentations ( few if any
tests - of coursemulti-choice test are easy but not very useful). Another
plan would beto split all income 60/40 (
The instructor gets 60% but I
cover all thecommunications cost) No classroom, no utilities, no
parking, just sign in(on a home page we provide for registration ) pay your
fee and get yourgrades and transcripts (which we E-mail). What is different about the class is the active
participation learning stylethat suits the INTERNET. Student will need AOL or other
service(netcom, prodigy, NETSCAPE PPP, CompuServe, etc)
There
are nowthousands of on ramps and web browsers.

The use of networks will (or is) be common in the
business world. I wouldlike a HOMEPAGE (NETSCAPE) classroom that looks and feels
like a realnetwork. People share work, edit and add pictures, dat
and charts or hyper links, soundet al. It should feel like MS-Office or Novell's Perfect
Office on line toregistered (password) students and teachers.
I wrote on July 12th 1994 about E-mail and BBS systems (
one year ago)and how the world has changed in this one year. Now we
are on the WWW web browsers and a HOMEPAGE hypertext systems with
our ownPPP node.
The INTERNET universality is an order of
magnitude bigger(10:1) than last year and will double in the next four
months. If you are notin touch you are out of touch with the most important
educational event sincemoving type and printing.
Sure, people said that about radio, movies, T.V., (which
may have becomemore important than formal education, but institutions
were unable to makethe structural and emotional changes to use these new
technologies and theydidn't have to share a market with those who did. ) This
time the newtechnology is a powerful consumer product not controlled
by the statemonopolies and bureaucries. Its a multi-billion dollar
business and educationwill be a by-product of the main entertainment,
communication, informationbusiness. Are public schools and colleges ready to take
on MICROSOFT,Intel, At&T, Bells, Cable companies, other community
colleges as well as3000 public and state institutions in this country and
equal numbers fromSouth Africa to Singapore.
These new economic forces will
get politicalsupport for grants, vouchers and charter schools.
The
state institutions willhave to share the subsidy and the student will have more
freedom of choice.Issue involve in-state and out-of-state fees,
certification, and transfer of statesupports and student aid.
Place bound systems will soon feel the heat of open
competitive pressure ofglobal un-bound enterprises.
The market is the (English
speaking) world butif we don't others will, there is real competition, state
institutions know littleabout open markets.
The utilities, telephone and cable
will be offering NET-SCAPE services within the year and within four years the
greatnessrevolution in communications and information systems will
be in place.
Thetrain has left the station, the plane is off the ground,
you can stand and wavegoodby or you can clamber aboard.
The only way to learn
is by doing, notstudies, not plans, not committees, not consultants, but
hands on doing andnow, because other are not waiting. This is what I said,
loud and clear, lastyear. It's going to happen what ever you or I think of
it. Candle makers didn'tthink much of Edison, or blacksmiths of Henry Ford.
Educational institutionsusing 18th century technology, using their geographic
franchise, are nolonger free of international competition. Now that has to
be a big change. The best teachers can work for anyone anywhere. A new
cottage industry.
After all it's the students and teachers that count - the
administrative systemis there to support education, students, learning and
keeping up to date. Thisabsolutely is a world in rapid change. Our students will
have to live in a newworld. Are we preparing them for the real world and the
future or are weturning our backs on the most important change of our
time? Often peopleknow its not working but don't feel they have a choice -
well now they do.Are the schools and colleges going to be
"surprised" like the American motorindustry was by a superior product.
The class can be offered by anyone anywhere: to anyone
anywhere, thequality of the product will matter as it never has in
history of classroomteaching. Everyone is paid the same, interchangeable
factory parts doing thesame classes as everyone else. That world is over.

Educational institutionsusing 18th century technology, using their geographic

The second class would
be $300 (15weeks classes), all the rest at $150.
The teacher should
get at least$1200 a class plus something for getting workbook
materials on a FTPfiles. I work with groups that look up instructions for
the activities.
Theyhave up to 15 hands-on active learning experiences. It's
like lab reports.Remember I use a point system, (so many points for the
grade) aportfolios and journals for presentations ( few if any
tests - of coursemulti-choice test are easy but not very useful). Another
plan would beto split all income 60/40 (
The instructor gets 60% but I
cover all thecommunications cost) No classroom, no utilities, no
parking, just sign in(on a home page we provide for registration ) pay your
fee and get yourgrades and transcripts (which we E-mail). What is different about the class is the active
participation learning stylethat suits the INTERNET. Student will need AOL or other
service(netcom, prodigy, NETSCAPE PPP, CompuServe, etc)
There
are nowthousands of on ramps and web browsers.
