Hi John,

Thanks for taking the time to answer our questions. My brief intro: I am
involved in adult education staff development in CT, specifically technology
integration. I have also worked on developing a video and in creating a new
teacher orientation multimedia CD.

You said with reference to the CyberStep project:
"My major contribution to this effort will be a Web-based authoring shell
that will allow all adult educators to create dynamic Web-based instruction
for their learners."

This sounds very interesting. I feel that teachers should be involved more
in generating content for web-based instruction and I feel that your product
can be very useful here.

Can you expand on it a little more? I could not find much on the CyberStep
web site. Here are some of my questions:

I presume this shell will generate HTML code for the instructional modules
that teachers choose to develop, is that correct?

If yes, what aspects of the instructional process will this shell help build
(e.g. lessons, student activities, student assessments such as multiple
choice answers, teacher class management, etc.)?

Is there any way in which we can help you out in this product development?
Do you have any thoughts around that?

When do you anticipate having it ready? Do you think there will be a fee for
this product? If yes, any estimates?

Let me stop here for now. Thanks again for taking the time to participate in
this listserv discussion.

Best,
Ajit
