The Electronic Academical Village

Abstract

A network of connected electronic mail (e-mail) systems now links most univer sities in the United States. These sys tems can be used to support the student teaching process by linking university faculty, student teachers, and supervis ing teachers in the schools. They can also be used as a tool for school-univer sity collaborations that benefit the schools as well. Bull and his colleagues explain how e-mail is a part of the edu cational culture of the Curry School at the University of Virginia.
