[net.general] Electronic University of the Future

jjs@mhuxd.UUCP (Jeff Simon) (05/29/85)

A recent alumni newsletter from my alma mater, Empire State College, 
reported on a planning colloquy on the "Electronic University of the
Future" funded by a grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.  The
colloquy was supposed to have been held May 16 and 17 in Saratoga
Springs, NY, and was supposed to have been attended by "specialists
in telecommunications, computers and 'learning theory' forms of education,
including representatives from IBM, Exxon, Bell Laboratories, MIT and
the British Open University."  I'd be interested in hearing from anyone
who attended this meeting.  I'd like to know what was discussed and hear
general impressions of the meeting.  Please reply directly to me.

Thanks.
