Dear Ms. Marino:
I'm writing from Spain, from The Telecommunications Museum in Madrid. We
exhibit, as part of new technologies in telecommunications,
video-conferencing system and we use it in our workshops, activities and
guided visits.
It's a system which arouse a lot of interest among visitors and what we do
is to explain how it works, we show how it works and we let people to use
it. Children enjoy quite a lot making games through it when we have used it
in activities for them.
What we are trying to develop now is a program for disabled people, not
only sensorial, but mental too, so they can see and use this new
technologies.
Hope that helps. Should you need any further information, please do not
hesitate to contact me through or off list.

I am very interested in knowing if any of your organizations are
currently using, or are planning to use, video-conferencing capabilities
for any educational purpose--either on your exhibition floor or as a
format for outreach programs or activities.
I will be working with the Association of College Educators of the Deaf
and Hard of Hearing (ACE-D/HH) as an advisor to a grant to facilitate
instruction for master teachers. Science education is a real issue for
the community of deaf and hard-of-hearing students. Video-conferencing
is one technique for increasing their access to educational resources.
I would greatly appreciate it if those of you interested in a dialogue
regarding the use of video-conferencing would respond to the list,
or--if you prefer--contact me directly. Thank you.

Hi
In the last year since the Columbia accident, our museum has been
focusing
on space and space related topics. Soon, we are opening a center for
astrophysics in memory of Col. Ilan Ramon, the first Israeli astronaut.
This
center will be a big project that will keep us occupied for several
years to
come.
Meanwhile, I need to set up, almost in real time, a small exhibition and
educational center for astrophysics.
I'm looking for shelf products, exhibits, on topics of astronomy and
astrophysics.
recommendations.....
Thank you in advance for all your help.
Tal
