I am in the process of getting my district to set up a BBS at our high school. 
We are starting at ground zero. Are there any texts/books/manuals that you are 
aware of? We are not locked in to any one platform, any opinions as to what
would be the best? What about software I've heard of Hermes and others what is 
"best" for each platform and what determines "best"?
My plan is to get dependable kids to run it and give them credit for it. Is
anyone else doing this? I don't want to reinvent the wheel so _any_ help would 
be appreciated.

Carol,
 
For what it's worth, there are about a dozen or so FidoNet BBS's in Nova 
Scotia, with most of them in the Halifax and Dartmouth areas.  Here are 
three:
 
In Coldbrook, 1:255/102, sysop is Ted Gervais and the phone number is:
1-902-679-2258.
He operates a continuous mail system at 9600 baud (and can connect with 
slower modems, of course!)
 
In Dartmouth, 1:255/106, sysop is Dave Renshaw and the phone number is
1-902-434-7823.
He also operates a continuous mail system at 9600 baud.
 
In Halifax, there is 1:255/107 (and many others, probably with 9600 baud 
capabilities) and the sysop is Steven Morris.  He operates a continuous 
mail system with a 2400 baud modem.
 
Perhaps if you got in touch with one of these people, you might find 
someone interested in the amelioration of your situation!
 
Good luck!
 
Regards,
Steve

I will try my best.  The state of Tennessee requires each 7th/8th grade
student in each school district to receive some basic computer skills
training under a program labeled Computer Skills Next.  Basically, I teach 
each student in my school for a set period of time the basics of
computers: what a computer is, how to use it, how to care for it, word
processing, data base management, telecommunications, keyboarding skills,
and programming in basic.  All areas use public domain programs and are,
in my opinion, weak.  I have over the years purchased software, hardware
enchancements, etc. to improvement the teaching of computers.  Computers
are taught as a subject apart from any class.  We are still using Apple
IIes for the most part which are getting VERY long in the tooth.  With
budget cuts and more budget cuts coming I doubt there may be very little
hardware improvements in the near future but who knows what the future
holds for my state and school district.  There is a feeling among some
people in my district and state that maybe computer instruction should be
integrated into all subjects.  By they way, our industrial arts teacher
established the first program in our area (and maybe our region) to teach
technology.  He was one of the first in our district to establish this
course.  No more hammer and nails--all computers, robotics, etc.  I will
pass your message along to him if you like.  Hope all of this discourse
answers your question(s).

 No problems. Still being inquisitive about the Apple //'s, are there
many(any?) dedicated Apple // magazines still selling out of
newsagencies over your way? The only one we get down here these days is
A+/Incider, and half of that is Mac anyway. Still, one of the best
magazines for the Apple must be A2-central.

I am a 4th year Bachelor of Education student at Sydney University, training to be an Industrial Arts teacher.  The current push in the state educational policy is related to a new sylabus titled "Design and Technology" which is supposed to be the newest
 and the best etc...  A large part of this new sylabus involves computer education.  I am researching for a major essay, whether an integrated approach or non integrated approach to teaching computers is the best.  By an integrated approach, I mean teach
ning computers as part of other subjects as a tool, rather than having a computer subject to learn about computers isolated from other subjects, that is, a non integrated approach.  Can you shed some light of how computer education is run in your area of
 education ?

Jack...:)  Easy to see that I am not thinking along the lines of a sysop, at 
least not yet.  I know those things but just didn't apply it to our 
discussion.  Thanks for giving me a new perspective.  Carol

G'day,

I seem to remember reading that IBM are etching lines on chips that are 400 atoms wide.
