Abstract
Key Words: Educational Computing Computers World Wide Web It is easy to meander around the various places on the World Wide Web (WWW) reading information on any topic or idea. It is becoming a central repository of what we know, and it is growing at a phenomenal rate. For better or for worse, this growth is, for the most part, uncontrolled. Comparing the WWW with a child's brain would be an appropriate analogy. There are millions of connections moving and processing information each day. Like a child, this stream of information is not organized or structured in a way that can be easily understood or assimilated. Much as a child sizes up a complex series of social events, learns some information, but does not fully grasp the volume of data that transpires, this immature Web, full of numerous transactions and interactions, does not allow us to synthesize or organize all this volume of information better. To continue the analogy, when the child moves into adolescence and begins to understand the subtleties of social behavior, the Web will as it matures offer us a more organized approach to our interactions with this incredible network.
