Hello Everyone, I'm glad to see that the dialog on ISN seems to be heading in right direction. Let me say that even though the ISN's charter was written several years ago, many of the issues are still very real ones for a lot of school districts. The biggest hurdle that many of these districts will have to address is funding. Once that's solved then safety, acceptable use polices, teacher training, etc. can be tackled. I have had the opportunity in recent months to interface with elementary students and their teachers when I was conducting some introductory computer and Internet training classes. The students are eager to learn, the resources are limited and the teachers are unsure how to incorporate the technology into the classroom. So much for my two cents.....look forward to hearing from you Renee Gates, President The KJR Group and Part-time Instructor St. Louis Community College at Forest Park - Harrison Education Center
