Abstract

ABSTRACT This paper discusses the use of computers in the area of global networking, with particular emphasis on Internet and Bitnet The emphasis of the paper is on the value of these applications for the professional development of teacher educators rather than on their potential in schools, though their potential in all sectors of education is enormous. Separate sections of the paper are devoted to discussing three important types of networking activity: electronic mail discussion groups, access to information from remote computers (through Telnet, Gopher and World Wide Web), and access to remote computer programs or files using FTP (File Transfer Protocol).
