- Thanks, Dave!
-
- ...maybe it is a trivial task to assemble an annotated bibliography on such
- resources via email (if you will permit me the bandwidth). I would LOVE to
- edit together and repost/redistribute such an annotated bibliography if others
- are willing to provide material for it.
-
- ***HERE IS THE PUNCHLINE***
-
- If YOU have or know of a Physics education related resource available via
- the internet or bitnet (such as textfiles, databases, BBS, listserv, news-
- groups, telnet sites etc), please send its name, complete access/joining info
- and a short (1-3 line) description to me. (see examples appended)
-
- I will assemble a 2 or 3 page catalogue and repost it. After it has
- settled somewhat, I will determine some method of achiving it so it is
- accessible to all Bitnet and Internet users, and I will update it periodic-
- ally with new information as it is made available to me. I can cope with
- being an archivist in the interest of remaining current on the topic of
- physics education/the internet.
