>** Scope
>While Internet access is growing in schools, universities and
>the corporate training arena at a geometric rate, a recent
>article related to Telematics and Internet based course
>development stated that every hour of web instruction was
>costing about 100 hours of preparation. There is an apparent
>need to harness the educational value of the Internet, as it
>is, without extremely time consuming authorship. Therefore,
>this special issue will focus on the curricular,
>instructional, and learning aspects of the Internet for
>professors, teachers and trainers who do not construct web
>courses or highly complex web creations.
>
>The first term, curriculum, is basically defined as the
>subject matter content or body of learning objectives that
>the Internet has to offer for more or less direct import into
>the educational setting. The second term, instruction, is
>construed to be the ways and means that the Internet
>curriculum is strategically deployed in educational settings
>to promote learning. The third term, learning, refers to the
>unique characteristics of learning, in a theoretical and a
>pragmatic sense, as experienced in relation to the medium of
>the Internet.
>
>We invite submissions covering these aspects that fall into
>the following categories:
>
>- Full length articles describing research results, presented
>through discussion and comparative analysis methods (about
>5000 words); - Short feature articles presenting case studies
>and emerging theories (about 2500 words);
>- Critiques, reviews, individual experiences (about 1500
>words).
>
>** Submission procedure
>Initial proposals (about 1000 words) should be concise and
>contain the main these of the proposed paper. They should be
