In addition to Shulman, etc. on teachers' professional judgment, look
at work by Virginia Richardson, Kathy Carter, and Walter Doyle. Also
look at the Handbook of Research on Teaching (1986). There was another
handbook published more recently with a somewhat different emphasis,
but the name escapes me at the moment.

Dear users of ATLAS/ti,
I would like to remind you of our "special interest group" which
is accessible as an e-mailing list. First I would like all who
are not already member of the list to join us by sending a one-
line e-mail to the following "list server":
listserv@db0tui11.bitnet
Don't specify a subject, just write one line:
SUB ATLAS-ti your name and institution 
an example:
sub atlas-ti George Miller University of Syracuse
If you work under VM/370 you can also send a "message":
TELL LISTSERV SUB ATLAS-TI your name and institution.
I would also like to encourage all who are already members to
talk about their experiences. We do have the opinion, that 
some ideas were incorporated into the tool worth being discussed
- especially after working on real life problems. 
Our research project will end in a few month and I am very interested
in how our concepts might have affected your style of work - in a
positive or negative manner. The feedback to our qualitative approach of
offering a prototype tool to be evaluated in real life is less then
meager and we would like to gain more insight in what the reasons could be. 
Critique is much better then nothing! 
The last "beta-version" will be made available to all who were
actively participating and have sent the questionnaire I
distributed last week.

Rene,
        We are using the term "professional judgement"
in much the same way that Lincoln and Guba talk about
"tacit knowledge".  It is a way of knowing that
teachers have which allows them to be in pretty
much agreement without being sufficiently intentional
that they can discuss it.  Often they seem unaware
of it, and yet it is a relibale guide in their day
to day decision making.  It seems to operate in much
the same way as the physician's knowledge in diagnosis ..
learned largely by following an expert diagnostician
through many cases.

Excuse me if I'm sending this reply incorrectly. This is my first
message in a net like this.

Anyway, I must disagree about the ethicality of cars. Yes,
they do produce airborne toxins and cause many fatalities, but as
for this psychological state, my brain is perfectly capable of
"digesting" the data given it at 70mph and reacting to stimuli with
great speed.I admit this ability diminishes significantly over long
periods of driving (airplanes are a great alternative in this
case), but for my normal city driving and intra-city interstate
driving, I have no psychological problems whatsoever with the speed
of events at my normal driving speed. In fact, I would support a
bill to raise the speed limit to 75 because I believe this
country's slow speed limits (esp. in comparison with those in
Europe) cause much fuel waste and are simply too slow for commuters
who must transport themselves to many places in a small amount of
time.

Let a voice be "heard" again that thinks that machines are not
neutral. In particular, cars are highly unethical: they produce
horrendous atmospheric and sound pollution, and put the driver
and passengers in an undesireable psychological state, besides
isolating them from their environment and forcing upon them
millions of images, without having the chance to "digest" them

I have been asked to obtain copies of 1) "computer-use ethics statements" which
would apply to the general user population and systems staff, and 2) an
"information services staff responsibility" document to guide the actions of
systems and user-support people.  While the former can be readily found in an
archive, I would like to hear from anyone who has either or both in place, or
at least under discussion.  The latter type of document would concern, among
other items, the need for maintaining security, not reading a non-privileged
user's e-mail without "probable cause", grounds for dismissal in the event of
disclosing sensitive information or altering systems and files for a personal
gain.  I believe that this captures the essence of what is sought; I'll be glad
to discuss the matter 1:1 with anyone who has additional comments.  A summary
will be provided to the list, subject to a respondent agreeing to have his/her
comments included.

Good call -- and neither do those who make the ethical judgment.  The
answer to your question might depend upon whether you opt for ethical
models based on rights, duties, utilitarianism, or virtue.

Subject:      ethical machines?

Granting the environmental violence that we cause with cars, and granting the
unethicality of that violence, it is not difficult to imagine a world in which
cars existed, but the violence did not.  Imagine that a social decision were
made to manufacture fewer cars (for whatever reason - shortage of steel,
principle, any reason will do).  Imagine further that the cars were used only
fro good purposes - to get firefighters to a fire fasxter; to get medical
response teams to the scence of an accident faster; to get the sick and wounded
to the hospital faster.  Would the existence of cars still be ethgically or
morally troublesome?

But there is another side to this: suppose in this alternate reality we still
rode horses.  If you really want to imagine polution, environmental, and
health problems, imagine if all those cars parked in the campus parking lot
were horses!  Ethical choices, in other words, do not exist in a vacuum.  We
do not just chooose to do X or not do X; we choose to do X or Y, or Z.  The
best choice in our given realities may not (usually IS not) the best imaginable
choice.

My guess is that ethical people will use computers ethically, and unethical
people will use them unethically; in an ethical society, ethical usage will
be pervasive and the norm; the reverse will be true in unethical societies.

Subject:      dos/xwin ques

        we at liu have bought xon/dos from ibm, and it apparently
        doesn't support wd8003 card. has anybody had any problems
        with this

        and more importantly what x window dos products are people
        using out there.

Frank-

We are running x windows on an IBM model 55 (386sx chip) with 1MB RAM, a
western digital ethernet card (the wd8003 I think), FTP software's
TCP/IP and IBM's x windows for DOS.  While quirky, don't change windows
too fast or resize them too frequently, it does work well enough to be
used on a daily basis.  I personally use x windows running under OS/2
2.0.  This runs on a model 70 with 10MB RAM, an Ungerman-Bass card,
IBM's TCP/IP with the additional x windows package.  This is an
excellant package so if OS/2 is an option for you I would strongly
recommend it.

I don't know why you are having problems with the wd8003 card.  If you
would like, I could send you some more info on how we have it
configured.
