Organisation Entry into e-learning

NAWeb 03

So - the proposal: a multidisciplinary educational simulation archive. This would be a library of simulatioins built by a consortium of universities. They would have a common API. And they would be designed to be inserted into Word documents and other text processors. Faculty know email, they know browsers, and maybe they know Word - and that's it - we should not expect them to learn anything else.

We can and should build custom Rolls Royces. But we need a way to empower faculty to build the Toyota Camrys - not custom made, but fine, reliable works.
