Forbes Tells Readers that Online Education is an Investment

"Online education may be the next big thing," according to a May 15 article in Forbes Magazine. "Education now competes with medical care as the biggest single industry in the U.S., and many people are beginning to invest in online universities and adult education," the article says, "though some investors think online education could benefit from good management practices and the application of multimedia techniques."

Andrew M. Rosenfield, the CEO of UNext, says developing nations need better educated and trained people, but they cannot afford the infrastructure or the teachers required." Corpedia's Alexander Brigham says; "Companies want prestige and are willing to pay for it. It is also easier to market to businesses than to consumers, and online education can be a powerful perk in the tight job market. Education is becoming a life-long activity for some, and the Internet is the most efficient means of delivering this product."

Universities as Distance Education Dot-Coms

A growing number of universities are attempting to enter the corporate-dominated distance learning market through venture startups and partnerships with technology companies. The University of Michigan Business School is the most recent addition to the group of educational institutions seeking to turn a profit through online courses, and is working with UK-based FT Knowledge to develop the technology to offer Web classes in executive education beginning this fall. Other schools launching online courses include Columbia University, the London School of Economics and Political Science, Stanford University, Duke University, Harvard University, and the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School of Business. Supporters of online teaching say it will allow students to engage in a fully interactive learning experience, save both universities and students money and time, and eliminate geographic barriers to receiving an education. Critics of distance learning fear it will cause universities to sacrifice the quality of their educational offerings in favor of generating revenue. (RedHerring.com, 15 March 2000)

Faster Search Engine: You may know how much I like AltaVista's search engine. You can now get to their bare-bones, customizable, development search engine called Raging Search at http://www.raging.com/. Very fast, up to 50 links on a report page, language translator, and no advertisements or other portal links of potentially interesting but unrelated services.  This is just for searching.

Learning How to Search the Web: And if you need some instruction on searching, here is another site recommended by Stuart M. Terrass, terrassm@muc.edu, Registrar at Mount Union College, as "informative, yet succinct ... anyone using the web would benefit from it." "Bare Bones 101"  has been created by Ellen Chamberlain, Head Librarian and Full Professor at the University of South Carolina Beaufort campus. Ms. Chamberlain holds a Bachelor of Arts, major in English, from the University of Michigan and a Master of Library Science from Western Michigan University. She is the co-author of BCK2SKOL ("Back to School"), an introductory Internet course for librarians and other serious searchers, initially offered on the Net in 1995 as a listserv, with lessons delivered to over 6,000 subscribers in 62 countries around the world.

NCES New Publications:

The Condition of Education, 2000 is an indicator report published by NCES that summarizes the health of education, monitoring important developments, and showing trends in major aspects of education.

NCES has just released Instructional Faculty and Staff in Higher Education Institutions Who Taught Classes to Undergraduates: Fall 1992. Using data from the 1992-93 National Study of Postsecondary Faculty (NSOPF:93), this study examined the extent to which instructional faculty and staff of higher education institutions are involved in undergraduate teaching. Specifically, it addressed the following two questions: 1) Who teaches undergraduates in the classroom? and 2) How much do they teach? To view, download or to print this report, please visit: http://nces.ed.gov/pubsearch/pubsinfo.asp?pubid=2000186

The 1999 edition of the Digest of Education Statistics is now easy to access with this just released web version. The Digest provides statistical information covering the field of education from prekindergarten through graduate school with over 450 tables and figures. Topics include: schools and colleges; teachers; enrollments; graduates; educational attainment; finances; federal funds for education; employment and income of graduates; libraries; technology; and international comparisons.

Urban Legends and Hoaxes: How many times have you received one of those Internet missives with dozens (or hundreds) of names in the header and >>>>>>>s galore preceding each line? In case you have yet to make the connection, such formatting should immediately raise suspicions about the content you are about to read (or delete, if you're smart). If you would like to know the veracity of such "urgent" dispatches, try David Emery's Urban Legends and Folklore page at http://urbanlegends.miningco.com/science/urbanlegends/. You can search by keyword, check out links by general categories, and even sign up for a weekly "what's the latest rumor or scam" e-mail newsletter. Paul Aucoin also recommends http://www.snopes.com/ from the San Fernando Valley Folklore Society. One more possibility: http://www.urbanlegends.com/.

HUMOR - Dangerous Examinations: Not that any of us have ever heard "creative" reasons for missing an examination, but here is a definitive study on the relationship between examinations and family deaths, The Dead Grandmother/Exam Syndrome and the Potential Downfall Of American Society.

NB:  If you know of a web resource or a bit of web humor that you think may be useful to your colleagues, please send the URL to Scott Dittman at sdittman@wlu.edu so it may be considered for inclusion in a future issue of NetNews.  Tell a little about why you like it and be credited with the catch.

Software Industry Not Guarding Internet

Computer security expert Peter G. Neumann of SRI International warned that the software industry is not doing what it should to keep the Internet safe.  "Vastly many more people are now relying on the Internet, and most of them are oblivious to the risks...," he said during testimony provided to the Congressional subcommittee holding hearings on the love bug virus in May, according to an article in the New York Times.

Neumann added, "the situation is grave. The commercial marketplace is not leading. The government is not exerting enough driving forces. This is a really ridiculous predicament, and would be a very bad joke if it were not so serious... Until software developers and system purveyors are liable for the failures of their products, there will be no real motivation to develop robust systems... The mass-marketplace is overly concerned with features; it tends to be long on fancy features and to ignore critical requirements such as rudimentary robustness. However, robust features can be achieved with good design and good programming practice, rather than the business-as-usual practices of sloppy development and a rush-to-market mentality. If automobiles were recalled as often as computer system flaws are detected, we would still have horses and buggies."

The General Accounting Office said that at least 14 federal agencies were hit by the love bug, including the Social Security Administration, the Energy Department, the Central Intelligence Agency, the National Aeronautic and Space Administration, the Immigration and Naturalization Service and the Defense Department.

Peter S. Tippett, a computer security expert for ICSA.net in Reston, Va., said a preliminary survey by his company indicated that 98 percent of businesses in North America received the e-mail, and 65 percent had computers infected by the attached virus. The Melissa virus spread to 20 percent of the company's in North America with only ten percent being infected.  Tippett estimated, the virus caused $3 billion in damages and lost time.

New Virus Hits Many, Including Regist-L

Please be advised that there is a potentially harmful new virus (worm) on the loose. It was sent to Regist-L this week. Watch for attachments labeled: LIFE_STAGES.TXT. If you see this attachment, please delete it without opening it. According to reports, the virus had caused e-mail systems shutdowns at four Fortune 100 companies earlier this week.

The so-called stages.worm virus comes in e-mail attachments from messages containing one of 12 randomly generated subject lines, including "Funny" and "Jokes." Like the "I Love You" and Melissa viruses, stages.worm replicates itself through Microsoft's Outlook Express e-mail program. It also targets IRC (Internet Relay Chat) and America Online's ICQ instant messaging service.

Earlier this week Antivirus software company Network Associates raised its warning on the "stages" worm from "low" to "high" based on the number of infections reported, according to the company's Web site. McAfee AVERT has assessed it as a high-risk threat.

This worm will arrive in an e-mail message with the following format:

SUBJECT: "Funny", "Jokes", or "Life Stages", sometimes followed by "Text"

CONTENT: "The male and female stages of life"

ATTACHMENT: "LIFE_STAGES.TXT.SHS" (the suffix ".SHS" may be hidden)

If the attachment is run, the user sees a list of jokes while the worm infects the system and attempts to send copies of itself to all addresses in Outlook address book, as well as through IRC and ICQ.

Many experts suggest instead that users of Outlook uninstall Windows Scripting Host, the program that allows VisualBasic scripts to run.  Most of us have no need for Windows Scripting Host; however, many virus writers use it.

If you use MS Outlook and do not wish to uninstall Windows Scripting Host, as one of the list owners of both Regist-L and SCR-L, Paul Aucoin urges you to not put either of them in your address book.

Republicans and Democrats Offer Internet Services

Free Internet service is being offered by the Democratic National Committee (DNC) to folks who are willing to answer personal questions about their political views and the type of health insurance they have.  The service, which is available via http://www.freeDEM.com is said to not cause privacy problems and the personal information will not be sold, according to the DNC national chairman Joe Andrew, as quoted in the June 6 issue of the Washington Times.

At the same time, the Republican National Committee has its own service at http://www.GOPnet.com. It offers  e-mail and Web access for $19.95 per month.
