se Internet in the Classroom? As an experienced teacher, you already have lessons that work well for the age you teach and the topics you cover. To evaluate whether using the Internet will enhance your classroom practice, consider these questions: 1. Would digital images help students understand a concept or topic? For example, could they use the Web to see images of black holes in space, historic photographs, artwork, or to look at satellite imaging or MRI scans? (On some sites, "objects" can be manipulated or rotated, so students can see them from different angles. Would this help students with a difficult concept?) 2. Does the lesson require collecting and analyzing data and building databases? 3. Does the lesson refer to time-related data, such as the changing stock market, the annual rainfall of a region, or the migration of whales? 4. Can the impact of the lesson be enhanced through student

Aliya Hakim"Communication and collaboration are particularly exciting for students using the Internet. Students can set up keypals (email pen pals) to connect with peers around the country and the globe. Students can correspond with experts in various fields via e-mail. E-mail activities are a good way to get started on the Internet, as they require minimal planning. However, be sure to contact your "experts" ahead of time to find out how long it will take them to respond.
Students can also communicate in real-time through online conferencing. For this, online chat rooms are popular with students and teachers. Audio and video conferencing using software such as DigiPhone (NetPhone) and CU-SeeMe create even more exciting educational opportunities. These software products are reviewed in CNET Reviews of Conferencing Programs. Be sure to plan ahead for online sessions, especially if you're working with schools in different time zones." -

Keep in mind that searching the Web works best with upper level students, who can better evaluate the usefulness of their search results. Also, Web research is better for individual rather than group projects, and is easier if each student has access to a computer.
