Mr. Feld
presented the background of this ambitious project detailing its accessibility and interactive components. He demonstrated its features online through video projection, charts and videotape clip.
The workshop was well attended and opportunities for feedback were provided.
Here is some of the feedback we've received:

Setti Razavi New York City's Board of Education NYCENET Web Coordinator is interested in Art Projects done by students. A web site can provide interactive opportunities for students and teachers through communication and research.
Norm Rosenberg from CSD 9 Project Smart Staff came to to workshop because it looked interesting as he passed by the door. He has had 14 years of Internet experience and states that a web site can serve as a catalyst for further research. It is a source of encouragement for new ideas and information.
Helen Dunkelblan Congruence Specialist at the Bronx Superintendency is interested in what is going on in Bronx High Schools. She would like to use the research capacities of the Internet for Writing and ESL/Literacy. She correctly identified Da Vinci as a composer of music.
Lauren Spiro Madison High School Teacher signed up for this workshop because it looked interesting and also successfully identified Da Vinci as a composer of music. She concludes that the definitive answer to who was Mona Lisa is not known.
