Hi,
My name is Beverly Mitzel, and I am new to this group.  I am writing to you from 
Central CT State University.  I am the Ass't. Director of the Media Center here, 
and am very interested in both VR and Hypermedia, for utilization in the 
educational environment.  I have been reading postings, and I know about the 
resource file with commonly asked questions...but it seems to me, that most of 
you are working with hardware (and peripherals) and software.  I know that there 
are some other Universities out there, who have had some grant funding for VR 
research.  What about applications? 
I ahave a question to throw out to the group...If there were such a thing as a 
"virtual classroom" what would/could it include (listing current 
technologies...ex: hypermedia etc.) and WHY.  And for any educators out there, 
HOW could we ASSESS performance?
Thanks,
