Here's a news update from the educational armageddon, already in progress. I exaggerate, but not by much. The academic profession as a whole is deeply divided over the use of the Web.
Skeptics view the Internet as a deadly danger.
Technophiliacs claim that computers will not only make our teaching and research easier, but they will attend committee meetings as well. The issues are real, and the stakes are high. However, all I wanted to do last year was make modest use of the Web to enhance my course design. I do not want to teach my courses from a beach in Thailand or simultaneously instruct ten thousand students. At my institution , my modest plans have been relatively easy to carry out.
