faculty group. There is also a link to Dr.
Diane Nahl's home page.
(iii) This is another useful area as it allows us to see the past through the eyes of
others, and it gives more background on where this project has gone. It is essential that
we see how our progress has been built on the prior work of others.
(ii) This very colorful page deals with the growing problem of road rage in society
today. In addition to discussions of the problem, this site is unique in that
it also offers solutions.
(iii) My favorite part of the page is the Dr. Driving Icon and its explanation.
(ii) This page deals with the origin and principles of traffic psychology and how an
individual can modify their behaviors. Included are links to many of the student
generational articles, and other related traffic psychology articles by Dr. James.
Describes in detail the theory of ACS modification.
(iii) Useful background on the complex theory of behavior modification.

what kind of role it may play in the future. Dr. James goes on to give some
background on Hypertext and the World Wide Web. In conclusion he describes how he
teaches his students to acquire citizenship in the rapidly growing Cyber-Community and
some methods he has found to help them overcome their fear of being a perpetual novice.
(iii) I found this area to be of some interest as I gained more insight into the theory
behind the class.
7. Social Psychology of Home
Page Architecture
(ii) On this page Dr. James discusses the impact of home page architecture, and
how a well designed page should look and feel. He conveys how a home page is not
just a document but a true extension of the individual who created it.
(iii) What I found most interesting was his description of the exponential growth of the
linked super-document. I also found much of his advice very helpful in trying to create
something personal.
(ii) This is a link to Diane Nahl's home who is an assistant professor in the Dept. of
Information and Computer science. Included are her links to student papers other
related interesting links. This page needs some up keep as many of the links are not
functioning. There is also a link back to Dr. James home page.
(iii) Not of much use to me.
(ii) This is Dr. Leon James contact page, with his address at the University of Hawaii
and a link to him for E-Mail.

feedback to that person.

formerly Leon A. Jakobovits, articles date back to 1960. Some articles are linked to
on-line copies.
(iii) WOW! He sure has published a lot.
11. Swedenborg Home Page Hawaii
(ii) This site dedicated to Emmauel Swedenborg (1688-1771). His psychology was based on
a triadic hierarchy, with will on top, intellect in the middle, and body below. This is
very similar to the modern version of Affective, Cognitive, Sensorimotor. This page
has an extensive list of links to many other Swedenborg related sites. This page gives us
some important information on how much of modern theory can be linked to the past.
(iii) Although this may be very important information I found it extremely
uninteresting.
(ii) Very well designed tour of student generational documents created by Calvin
Cheung, G3. Included is a link to Darin Kawamoto's,G3 home page. These are
good examples of very slick looking sites. These pages are good examples of what students
are able to do with their newly acquired skills.
(iii) It's neat to be able to see what others students are able to do.
(ii) More information on Emmauel Swedenborg's theories and scientific
contributions. Most important is his dualist model of science. There are links to
parts 2 and 3 of this article. These give even more background on him.
(iii) Same reaction as in #11
14. Daily Round Archives (DRA)
(ii) This link takes you to the on-line Daily Round Archives. These are the
student generational documents created before the curriculum went on-line. These
documents have been scanned and formatted into home pages by students in enrolled in the
curriculum. There are links to these pages, and to articles related to the DRA. This
are important as again they show what the students faced in the years before the course
went on-line.
(iii) Boy did this take a lot of time.

Web Find. Covers generations 1-5.

18. FOR EARLIER OR TEXT ONLY BROWSERS

unfortunately linked documents are not in same format.

through the text. I really dislike documents which take forever to load.
