# Questions for Committee

We are using the WWW as the primary means of dissemination of the project's modules.

- Coordination: Should we be working with other groups in coordinating the development of content or standards for the modules? If so, who?

- Architecture and User Interface: We've classified content into three major areas: modules, shared concepts, and definitions. Does this work well? Have we provided a coherent architecture and interface compared with other educationally oriented software?

- Standards: We've built templates for quizzes, problems, etc. (which we call components).
  (a) Are the existing components pedagogically sound for our various users? What components would be useful that are not in our set?
  (b) Regarding developing components, are there any other standards or resources (web-based or other) that you think we should consider? (c) Regarding tracking student progress through quizzes and problems, how much tracking should be implemented?

- Authoring Environment: We've narrowed the choices that authors are able to make while developing web pages in order to achieve a level of standardization. This is a tradeoff with a more flexible system that will allow developers to create more varied pages. Do you think we've achieved a good balance between flexibility and standardization?

- Commercialization: We're evaluating the potential to generate revenue from our set of tools and content. How feasible is this? Do you see other mechanisms for generating revenue?

Where should we be in three years and what objectives should we set down to achieve this?
