The workshop will be held at the United States Military Academy in West Point, NY during the week of July 22-26, 2002. It will feature a survey of useful sites, an examination of what makes an effective online lesson, and an opportunity to work in a small group to create sample materials. A discussion web site will be created to allow participants to continue developing the contacts made at the workshop.

This is a repeat of the successful Web Feats workshop conducted by us last summer at The Eisenhower National Clearinghouse in Columbus, OH. The web site for that workshop contains the schedule, a list of participants, pictures, and some of the materials produced by the participants at this first workshop:
