World Wide Web: Access to the Internet l The Web for Delivery of Instruction l Web. Quest l l l Introduction Task Process Sources Conclusion
Issues l Monitoring Student Use l l Acceptable Use Policies (AUPs) l l Promote appropriate user behavior restrict inappropriate material Limit access with software programs (“wack”) Agreements among student, parent/guardian, administrator Security l l l Give out no personal information School address/phone number for contact information Parent permission to post student pictures

Advantages Comparison l Internet/WAN (wide area network) l l l l Variety of medium Up-to-date information Easy navigation Idea exchange Convenient communication Low cost Intranet/LAN (local area network) l l l l Centralization Consistency Currency Pull versus push approach Ease of communication Reduces technology coordinator’s workload Equipment can be les up-to-date
Limitations Comparison l Internet/WAN (wide area network) l l l l Age-inappropriate material Copyright issues Uprecedented growth Dependable support Access/speed Lack of quality control Intranet/LAN (local area network) l l l Unreliable remote connections Speed of response Cost Limited student/employee access to lab Limited number of user at one time
Integration Comparison l Internet/WAN (wide area network) l l l l Access electronic documents Link information to papers and projects Electronic pen pals/”key pals” Sharing information or data Online research Collaborative projects with geographically distant partners Intranet/ LAN (local area network) l l l Reduced time/cost for internal training Easy update of information Flexibility of time/use of training materials Computer lab Teacher control (“freezing”) of student screens
Future Possibilities l Decentralized public education Students – small elementary level “attendance centers” l Large high schools – sports, etc. l l Distance learning professional development l Learning networks
