You are invited to attend a workshop introducing
     _The Educator's Information Highway_

The workshop will be a 1-1/2 day pre-session at the Chicago
conference of the American Educational Research Association.
Dates are Sun, Mar 23 (8:30 to 5:00) and Mon Mar 24 (8-11).

The session, including hands-on practice, shows how
to gather information systematically from
   print and nonprint materials,
   the Internet,
   commercial online documents,
   and human resources.
Modem stations will be available, with a team of doctoral
students to assist.

You will receive teaching materials and a "cookbook" to lead
you through the procedures.

A related presentation involves a 1-1/2 hour roundtable entitled
          "Databases: A Path through the Jungle."
This roundtable meets from 12:25 to 1:55 on March 28.
The database session is sponsored by the
Special Interest Group for
Teaching in Educational Administration (SIG/TEA).
Concurrent roundtables deal with other topics in the teaching
of educational administration.
