Our discussion software is WebBoard 3.0. WebBoard is both friendly and powerful. You can get help on any WebBoard screen by clicking the Help button in the menu bar at the top of the screen. The workshop is divided into six sessions. Each session poses 2 or 3 main tasks for your consideration.
Some tasks examine model technology planning practices.
Others raise thorny issues that most technology leaders encounter. In most sessions, one task also involves basic information about the nuts and bolts of network technologies, including network protocols, servers, wide area communications, and many other tasks. For each of these 2 or 3 tasks, there are readings and an associated web-based discussion where you can share your thoughts and comments. You should view the due date as the last possible date on which you should post your initial contribution to the web-based discussions. You should plan to spend 2-3 hours per week, in total, on all of the readings and discussions.
