Date: 13 Jun 86 10:27 PDT From: dmrussell.pa@Xerox.COM Subject: Bay Area AI and Education Meeting: June 23rd, 6PM, PARC What: Bay Area AI and Education Group holding its first meeting. Where: Xerox Palo Alto Research Center (PARC) 3333 Coyote Hill Rd. Palo Alto, CA (send for detailed directions) When: June 23rd, 6PM Who: Speakers: Jim Greeno and Peter Pirolli "Some New Directions in the Science of Instructional Design" Math Science and Technology Education Dept. University of Calif. Berkeley Host: Daniel Russell Intelligent Systems Lab PARC Amplification: BARRET (Bay ARea Research in Educational Technology) is an attempt to bring together many of the local people working in the area of applying AI to education. There are significant efforts at Berkeley, Stanford, UCSF, SRI, PARC and so on. BARRET is a way of establishing some communication between the various groups, by hosting technical talks on this topic and setting aside time for informal discussion. To do this, BARRET will be implemented as a moving sequence of talks circulating throughout the Bay Area on a (roughly) monthly basis. We hope to have high quality talks on areas of mutual interest to be followed by an equally high-quality dinner that will allow us to meet and discuss topics further. This first meeting of BARRET will be followed by dinner at Chef Chu's, assuming that we can get a reasonable headcount. (With enough warning, non-MSG-ers and veggies can be accomodated.) So, if you are interested in attending, please message (or call) me and let me know of your intentions. That will allow us to do some planning for our first meeting. -- Dan Russell -- ArpaNet: DMRussell.PA@XEROX.COM Phone: (415)-494-4308 Mail: Dan Russell ISL 3333 Coyote Hill Rd.
