Education via the World Wide Web. More and more educators are doing it. More and more students are demanding it. And more and more questions are coming up. How does Web-based education compare with "traditional" educational venues? How do you foster the sense of campus community online, with students and educators who may never meet face-to-face? How do you make Web technology work to support learning - and not the other way around?

The North American Web Conference, 1998, will focus on innovative and practical uses of the World Wide Web in education, extending the reach of existing campuses and creating "virtual" campuses of a new and unique nature. Conference topics include, but are not limited to:

• Courseware development for the Web
• Web-based assessment
• Creating communities of learners online
• Educational techniques and strategies in the Web's unique environment
• The technology, the tools, and the know-how to make it happen
• Harnessing the electronic beast
• Administrative issues for online educators
• Evaluating Web-based educational results
