    The session will consists of three parts:

    1. What has been done so far?

    Presenters will describe and participants will discuss the various e-media initiatives that have been taken so far with the objective of developing a shared sense of "the state of the academy" so far as e-media is concerned.

    2. How should ongoing initiatives be organized?

    A discussion of what is the appropriate way to organize e-media efforts so that the current approach emphasizing distributed initiatives may be maintained and be effective.

    3. What is likely to happen in the future?

    A session designed to stimulate ideas about what may be made to happen in the future.

    Charlie,
    We are unable to attend this meeting but would be interested in the
    outcomes. We are doing a lot of work through our university in flexible
    distance learning and would be interested in what else is going on. So, are
    there any papers etc being released? If so how would one get on the mailing
    list?

    Thanks

    Phil Rutherford
