For those of you in the Annapolis/Baltimore/Washington area, here is a
final notice re: our seminar on  "Building a Methodology to Evaluate Your
Web Site" on June 17.



                     Institute for Learning Innovation
                      Professional Development Seminar
                               June 17, 1999

             "Building a Methodology to Evaluate Your Web Site"
                       presented by John Chadwick, Ph.D.
          Senior Research  Associate, Institute for Learning Innovation


      We define goals and objectives that can be measured when developing
      traditional museum exhibits, but in the rush towards developing
      online resources, little effort has been made to understand the
      behaviors of online users. As the medium of the Web matures, the need
      for understanding our online visitors is becoming increasingly
      important. This workshop will explore the state of current research
      of online user behavior and the methodological limitations of such
      research.

      Dr. John Chadwick is a Senior Research Associate with the Institute
      of Learning Innovation. Prior to joining the Institute, Dr. Chadwick
      worked with the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and the New
      Mexico Office of Cultural Affairs as a network administrator and Web
      administrator. He is also the founder of Museum-L, a
      cross-disciplinary internet discussion list for museum professionals.
      Dr. Chadwick's dissertation was titled: "A Survey of Characteristics
      and Patterns of Behavior in Visitors to a Museum Web Site."
