Abstract

Boston, Mass. June 17-22, 1996

The conference had quite a few interesting papers, some of which I have made notes upon below. We are looking here at a proceedings that contains 900 or so pages of papers which were presented in very many parallel streams - so one had to be pretty choosy.

You should check out the proceedings - which the AACE who run EdMedia have put together pretty well.

Also you should check out the next show (EdMedia 97) in Calgary which offers a mean rodeo! This university-based conference promises to knock the technical socks off a hotel based one (such as the 96 conference discussed here), plagued by bandwith problems etc.

Critical dates are June 14-19 in 1997 for the show itself.

It also goes without saying that my own talks - on my student welfare project WISH [audio commentary accompanies the web site] and on the KMi Java Stadium work - were fairly well received.

My notes here are in chronological order, and illustrated with a few snaps from my Casio QV-10.

The rest of my time in Boston was spent in searching the computer shops for roadwarrior toys.
