520 |a Designed to assist educators in selecting a computer network, this paper contains a listing and description of seven networks that currently exist specifically for educators, and compares the quality of their services in the areas of accessibility, responsiveness, cost, text editing, humanization, guidance and documentation, control, forgiveness and recovery (user receives a second chance before making a mistake), and additional specialized features. The networks discussed are: The Rural School House, a bulletin board operated by, and for, the Cheyenne Wells School District; Old Colorado City Electronic Cottage; Education 80; Special Net; CONFER; DIALOG/Knowledge Index; and the Educational Research Forum. Also provided is information on accessing each of the networks, including the equipment needed. Special attention is given to the Educational Research Forum (the Forum) on CompuServe and its three basic parts: a conference area, message capacity, and databases. (JB)
