Hello All,

Since the last couple of major discussion topics that have emerged have
related to distance learning, and the NIFL Tech List Survey that many of us
completed in the beginning of the year indicated a strong interest in
distance learning (58% of all responses indicating topic of interest) our
next moderated discussion will be on distance learning.
Jere Johnston from the University of Michigan will be joing the list in
July (scheduled for the week of the 18th). Jere is the Director of Project
IDEAL, here is a description from the Project IDEAL website,
http://www.projectideal.org/  

"Project IDEAL is a consortium of states working to develop effective
distance education programs for adult learners. The Project IDEAL Support
Center at the University of Michigan helps consortium states by developing
training materials and web-based tools. The Center provides technical
support in the areas of teacher training, research design, data collection,
data analysis, and reporting. Through collaborative research and practice,
we are working to provide quality distance education for adult learners
across the country."

In the next few weeks I'll be working with Jere in preparing for the
discussion. In helping to shape the direction and focus of the discussion
my questions for list members is:

What questions do you have about distance learning that you would like to
see explored in this moderated discussion?


Feel free to email the whole list or email me off list at: mariannf@lacnyc.org

Best regards,
Mariann
