Published every Friday both on the web and by email, it provides a fast, convenient way to stay informed of valuable resources on the Internet. The Internet Scout Project is located in the Department of Computer Sciences at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and is funded by a grant from the National Science Foundation.

Others focus upon a single aspect of a course, like a specific assignment or project that incorporated new media technology.

    World Lecture Hall - Links to pages created by faculty worldwide who are using the Web to deliver course materials. Searchable by discipline.

    Instructional Project Gallery - Examples of multimedia projects in a variety of disciplines developed at the University of Indiana.
