Abstract

This paper outlines the use of computer conferencing to enhance teaching and learning in an undergraduate college course, primarily as a supplement to lectures and class discussions, to implement homework assignments, to facilitate the writing process in writing-intensive courses, and to conduct informal course evaluations.

Comments

This paper describes the use of electronic communications in undergraduate teaching early in the evolution of Internet technology and is therefore primarily of historic significance.
