Merlot Conference in August



Hi gang,

Just an announcement of an August conference some of you may be interested
in.

http://taste.merlot.org/conference/index.html


The general Merlot site is:

Merlot is a consortium which serves several functions:

The two most important IMO are:

1) providing a single clearing house site for web-based "learning objects"*
(for want of a better word) in various academic disciplines. The Physics
section is obviously the one of predominate interest for this group.

2) A peer-review process for these learning objects.

*a common example of a learning object would be an interactive applet
illustrating some aspect of a topic in physics.
