I am encouraged by the discussion line being taken with regard to the
mission statement.  I feel strongly that we must not limit our vision to
the current in technology.  The computers of today will be obsolete
sooner than we think, but the instructional technology of the future will
still be charged with delivering and supporting the human process of
learning.  We must therefore focus on that which we are about -- education!!

I believe, also, that the house building analogy is exceptionally valid.
We must focus less on the tools and more on the process.  The tools will
change, but the process and the end result will still be remarkably the
same whether we use computers or chalkboards.
