Hello Jay,

Check out the Email Projects Web site  http://www.otan.dni.us/webfarm/emailproject/email.htm  especially the virtual school visit project.  Look at the class/school visits that took place last spring or in the previous year or two for good examples of school/community Web sites designed by students and their teachers together. Some of these are adult education
classes; some are K-12; some include adults and kids virtually visiting each others' classes and schools.

Also, visit the Community Arts storefront on E-square2 at http://alri.org/esquare/esq2/esq2.html
There is a great class Web site on Dorchester history (then and now) done by an adult education program in Boston.
E-square [alri.org/esquare] is an "electronic square" on the Web for and by adult learners.  Lots of interesting stuff there by learners and teachers.

David J. Rosen

I expect it to include writing about a wide range of topics, including, of course, the WTC tragedy.  We are already in communication with a computer training class in South Africa with whom we will be exchanging e-mail.
