Using the Internet for what?

Planning

The Internet is a technological marvel. It eliminates many of the historical barriers to the free flow of information. Its accessibility is its greatest strength.

But the Internet has grown to be so large that its very size is an obstacle to accessibility. As a consumer of the Internet, how do you know where to look? As a producer of information for the Internet, how do you know what to make available and how do you tell interested people where to find it?

Like any other communication activity, accessibility to the Internet has to be planned. It can be seen from both the perspective of the producer and of the consumer.

To prepare for the on-line session, participants were asked to follow each of the steps that are given under producer and do the exercises for the kind of information that they would like to convey as a producer.

Here are two plans done as part of an earlier seminar. These are Elaine Ostroff's plan as well as that of María Cristina Sará-Serrano.
