Abstract

Apparently the Internet is becoming increasingly accessible to Americans; according to the Associated Press, there are 74 million Internet users in the United States (Gearan, 1999). The U.S. Department of Education (1999) reports that, in 1998, 89% of public schools have access to the Internet, and 51% of all American classrooms are connected to the Internet. This paper examines the advantages and limitations of various Internet technologies so that educators can make appropriate decisions to select and utilize them to facilitate interactive teaching and learning in a distance education program.
