Web : technologies are used for courses of study as small as self-paced : tutorials and as large as entire degree programs. Web technologies : are currently used in many ways including distribution of traditional : classroom materials, communication among students and : instructors, multimedia presentation, interactive simulation, on-line : textbooks, and on-line practice, drill, and examination. New : teaching and training applications are rapidly enabled by advancing : Internet and computing technology. : : Although the body of published research in web-based teaching : and training is large, it is relatively young and incomplete. Existing : theoretical and exploratory research needs further synthesis and : empirical validation. At the same time, rapid technology changes : have created opportunities for new theoretical and exploratory : investigation. The field needs both a systematic evaluation of where : it has been and further exploration of its many new frontiers. : : Papers are solicited in a broad range of related topics including, : but not limited to: : : Frameworks, taxonomies, and other theoretical or descriptive : models : : Paradigms and philosophical aspects : : Empirical study or experimental design : : Analysis, design and implementation of web-based content, tools, : and delivery systems : : Tools for creating, delivering, administrating, and assessing web- : based instruction : : State-of-the-art case studies : : Applications of emerging Internet and computer technology in : teaching and learning : : Efficiency and efficacy : : Social and economic implications : : Privacy, security, intellectual property, and censorship : : Learning outcomes and attitudes : : Mini Track Co-Chairs: : : Stephen D.
