A new focus this year is on multimedia, and not just as a contributor to the projects of others. This year's Project Management courses were produced to CD-ROM instead of videotape. The change of format offers many advantages. Administratively, it is timely and cost effective. From the student's point of view, it is more convenient.
Students can take a CD-ROM and a laptop and study anywhere.
GW Television provided two-way interactive videoconferencing to dozens of people worldwide. The range of uses for this medium is vast. Elementary schoolchildren in Oregon spoke with a National Park Ranger and had a virtual tour of their nation's capital. GW students interviewed for career opportunities in other states or other nations. Some defended dissertations.
