GEN: Virtually There begins today!

[Sylvia Currie <currie@idmail.com>]

In preparation for the upcoming "Virtually there: Tapping, Tinkering 
and Teaching Online" session to be held at the 23rd annual National 
Educational Computing conference (NECC), the panel of presenters 
invites you to join in a GEN pre-conference discussion to examine the 
role of text-based learning in synchronous and asynchronous 
environments. Linda Harasim, Curtis Bonk, Sherry Hsi, Linda Polin, 
Margaret Riel, Robert Tinker, and Stone Wiske will share their online 
teaching and learning spaces, and their experiences with synchronous 
"written conversations" and asynchronous conferencing.

Also, it's the final week of our "Enabling Cultural Change in an 
ELearning Environment" seminar but it's not too late to join in! 
During phase 3, Manon Desjarlais will lead GEN members in a 
discussion related to all aspects of "networking" as a context for 
cultural change.

Please join us!
