FLEXNEWS is devoted to studying the effects of learning and working in
cybertime and cyberspace. Flexnews seeks to explore the implications
created by distance learning and telecommuting. Individual lifestyles
are being transformed, and communities are taking shapes never possible
before.
Flexnews solicits articles that provide insights into the ways that
learning and working are being reshaped when they are mediated through
computer communications. We are seeking announcements of relevant
distance learning and telecommuting events. We are looking for short
articles outlining ideas and/or experiences that shed light on this
topic. We prefer articles of 2 to 3 pages and urge authors to include
pointers to related information on the web, in news groups or listserv
discussions. Announcements, articles and ideas can be sent either to
Ann Parsons at akpgsh@rit.edu or Norman Coombs at nrcgsh@rit.edu.
