Overview:

1. The Browser-centric Web versus the Content-centric Web
   The Web browser was invented as a gateway into the World Wide Web. Has it become our prison on the Web?
2. The best uses of the Web are transparent.
   Email clients, iTunes Music Store, Reference utilities
   Web-enabled applications are all around us, and we’re hardly aware of the fact that they are web-enabled. This approach is an excellent one for instructional software.
3. Internet-enabled demo
4. Web-based application demo (or “Look, Ma! No Browser!”)
   The Learning Web: A proof of concept, audience participation demonstration.
