Do these other topics fit into your charter? I am a graduate student at Ohio State, we recently set up a local b-board to discuss maters in the general field of instructional design, but as yet the service hasn't seen much use. I was hoping to find a national forum that might get more discussion going. Tony Frisby-t@osu-20.ircc.ohio-state.edu Let me know directly, or follow-up to this message, I will continue to read here, what you think.
