It is up to the teacher to exercise the supervision on the quality of the information provided as well as on its appropriateness for the users. The first test-run was conducted at the end of the Fall 1994 semester as a part of the PHY105 course. Both in the Spring and Fall 1995 it has been used as a resource for students' projects. Use We have tested SETI and other computer-based modules in two ways. In the first, teachers introduce the topic and give instructions on how to navigate through the module.
Additional help is provided at designated computer clusters.
SETI is also used as a gateway to other Web resources. The SETI module was designed and written by Gianfranco Vidali, Marco Falcioni, and Eric Gregory. Marvin Goldberg and Edward Lipson designed the Science for the 21st Century course. Technical assistance from NPAC is gratefully acknowledged.
