The profiles, representing two-year and four-year, public and private, rural and urban, and small and large colleges, offer advice on topics such as: (1) setting up, expanding, or modifying writing programs with a computer component; (2) how much technical information to give novices in word processing and when to give it: (3) setting up laboratories, the arrangement offurniture, and the scheduling of courses; and (4) using the computer in the English class with a variety of target populations--basic writing students, learning disabled students, students in freshman compositionand literature classes, and upper-level students. The descriptionsare listed in alphabetical order by the name of the college. Each begins with a summary statement and provides the names and addresses of authors.

The serial nature of speech ensures that it is a difficult medium in which to browse documents. Much of the structure implied in the visual appearance of the content is not available through specch. Only a narrow region in the content is perceiv- able at any given time, and it can bc difficult to navigate to the important segments of the document. This is in contrast to visual interaction, where cues such as changcs in font or colour establish contextual changes in the content and guide the user accordingly. A number of browsing/navigation strategies are presented to offset these problems. These are implemented through WebTree. This is a highly cus- tomisable web browser which rcnders documents through a dynamically ex- pandable tree structural view.
