-
- The Interpersonal Computing and Technology List (IPCT-L) was
- created February 1992 by the Center for Teaching and Technology (CTT)
- at the Academic Computer Center, Georgetown University. A special
- effort will be made to promote an international forum for
- pedagogical issues important to higher education involving
- teaching with technology, and especially with connectivity and
- networking.
-
- A goal is to create a forum for the discussion of computing and
- other technology that can be used to promote learning. Topics for
- discussion may involve teaching and training; collaboration;
- partnerships among learners, faculty or teachers, and other
- interested persons in the educational community; and research that
- reflect these interests. The decade of the 1980s was characterized
- by the _personal_ computer, and development of individual product-
- ivity. The focus of the IPCT-L, as we move toward the 21st century,
- is that _interpersonal_ computing and technology will tie persons
- together throughout the world -- to share ideas and solve problems.
-
- Besides creating a forum for the topics of interest noted above,
- another interest of the CTT is to publish a scholarly, refereed
- international journal. To that end, the IPCT-L will develop a
- subscription list and act as a resource to develop the community
- necessary to review articles and recommend editorial policies as
- these publishing goals move forward.
