Statement
Contents in This Site (Link 1)
(a) On this webpage there are explicit descriptions of
three Psychology courses which Dr. James has to offer in the psychology curriculum: Traffic Psychology, Cyberspace Psychology,and Swedenborg's Spiritual Psychology. This web site provides an ample amount of information about these topics for any curious mind.
(b) In the Beginning of the Table of Contents, the author provides enough information about the web site so that even the inexperienced computer user is able to see a prelude of what the site has to offer in the different hyperlinks to come.

Psychology's Most Wanted: Leon James A.K.A Leon Jakobovits (Link 2)
(a) The Information on this website informs the public about the Professors Past education experiences. Other information corresponding would be his mailing address, e-mail address, and a voice mail number to contact him regarding this page.
(b) On the title "Leon James formerly
Leon Jakobovits" It is understandable why Professor James Leon would title this page "Leon James formerly Known as Leon Jakobovits, it is incase old friends of his end up on this page they will know that Leon James was Leon Jokobovits. It is a little misleading. You would expect a reason for Dr. James changing his name. The rumor around campus is that many students wouldn't take his classes so he changed his name! That's the Rumor!
Indexes for
this Site (Link 3)
(a) Here you won't find a title introducing the site you will find a statement. This website has Five options to chose from that corresponds to Psychology topics on the CSS Web Sever. The Five options are Index of Documents by Leon James, List of full text articles by Leon James, Index of all documents on this website, Search by keywords, concepts or names, and lastly a Subject index.
(b) What a huge site? This is! "Heavy Work!"
This is a huge amount of information to look through, a person would need more then a few hours to complete this database. There are many interesting articles to read and helpful documents that a psychology student could use to do research with too. I enjoyed looking through this site because there were different ways to access information instead of the same old word search. The warning was very helpful for the index all documents because someone who doesn't have much time on the web can spend time in one of the other areas on this page, and come back later to check out the Long File.
List
of Publications by Leon James (Link 4)
(a) This web site consists of a listing for
all the works that Dr. James has published so far in his career.
(b) This site presents a list of Dr. Leon James publication achievements. It also provides students with great research materials for future papers or for informational purposes.
STUDENT
GENERATIONAL REPORTS: Ethnography of an Academic Cyber-CommunityThe Hawaii Generational
Curriculum Project (Link 5)
(a) The site has links to the generations of Traffic Psychology and Siberia-Psychology and provides links to reports of each student within the generations.
(b) The best area I would recommend surfing on this site would be the "Introduction to the Community Classroom Generationsl Curriculum". It describes what the reports are and how they became online. My personal favorite was the awards for the best web page reports. Looking at a few I would have to agree that they deserved the recognition.
Swedenborg Home Page Hawaii
(Link 6)
(a) Here in this link you will find a Sweedenborg Glossary, and you are able to visit other links to different webpages beyond the CSS web-server. Links here provides solutions to questions like"What is Cyber-Psychology?" and a description of " What is Spiritual Psychology?"and so on.
(b) I found this page very helpful for my own information about the class Cyber-Psychology. I had a vague image of the term Cyber-Psychology until I read this article. I would encourage anyone who is planning on taking up Cyber-Psychology or Spiritual Psychology to give this page a look at for more information on the subject to see if it is for you. This topic is advancing faster each year and the more you know the more it helps you in life as well as in school. I have a clearer idea of What Cyber-Psychology is now.
Dr. Driving
Says...Road Rage and Aggressive Driving (Link 7)
(a) This site gives a description of "Dr. Driving Icon",random acts of kindness, a analysis of Princess Diana's Death, aggressive drivers, and Road rage to name a few. There are many other links that provides the surfer with neat information.
(b) The topic I found most appealing was the "Random Acts of Kindness"website. I found it interesting how many reports are related to experiences that I have had on the road. I also enjoyed reading about Diana's anaylsis, but even in death she is unable to find rest from the public.
Explore This
Site With Tour Guides (Link 8)
(a) This site was really cool. I felt like I was taking a tour of Hover Dam except it was at home on the computer and a tour of the Website. Here the visitor has a chance to learn more about the site with the help of a guide.
(b) I found this site unique in a cool way. It helps people find their way if they are still confused with the organization on the beginning page. This website will be a valued asset to many visitors.
Traffic
Psychology (Link 9)
(a) Here in this site you will find information on the concept of Traffic Psychology and Psychology 459. There are so much links here but never fear there is also a table of contents that assist in sorting out the overflow of information.
(b) There are so many links here that you need to have a whole day to look through them. I didn't spend much time here. The page background color is really bright and distracting from the information. I found myself leaving this site rather quickly. Those who are taking 459 probably spent more time at this site.
Cyber-Psychology
(Link 10)
(a) I found this wave to be the most informational for me and the course Psychology 409. The link has generations from previous classes and neat articles like Virtual Reality, Virtual Book and many others.
(b) I enjoyed this website because of the articles, The Virtual Book, and Virtual Reality. I can't believe how quickly the information highway is growing. This website seems as if it needs to be updated in some ways to fit with the expanding growth of the Internet.
Spiritual Psychology (Link 11)
(a) This site emphasizes Spiritual Psychology. Here you will find a Go to... menu that continues the article with part 2 and part 3. There is also a glossary of Swedenborg's Writings.
(b) There was not much of a reaction for this page. I would suggest that this page needs to have a facelift surgery.
Daily Round Archives (Link 12)
(a) Here at this website it looks back on to the generations before the publication of their works. The students are from the Psychology class 499 and they were to observe the different versions that they were assigned and create a homepage based on the information they collected and to offer advice for future web creators.
(b) This seemed like a trial and error test for the enhancement of this curriculum. It helps the future generational curriculums with helpful thoughts and suggestions. This site acts like a historical review for future generations to come after.< font>
Social Psychology of Home Page Architecture (Link 13)
(a) This web page psychologically explains the Web with a Narrative tone to it. It explains different kinds of web pages on the Internet, stylistic features of homepages, and other helpful hints about web design.
(b) I found the article, The birth of Cyberspace interesting. It was neat how very recently Homepages became very popular. I also found that the stylistic features guided my creation of my homepage. It was very help how it recommends background colors and other functions helpful in creating your homepage.
Full Text Articles and Books (Link 14)
(a) Here you will find an index with all the main topics of the site.e A lot of
interesting articles like course integrated Cyberspace learning community and course integrated use of the world wide web.
(b) I found the "course integrated use of the World Wide Web" pretty interesting and informational. I like the concept of reading other students reports and learning from one another. Teachers should use this concept more often in their classrooms. Maybe it is the beginning of a cyber-teaching. We have interactive learning through satellite why not have education on the Internet, we have everything else.
Diane Nahl's
Search Index (Link 15)
(a) When you enter this webpage there will be a notice that the page has moved to a new address. After the notice, the contents in this site are Search Engines, students papers, uhunix information, HTML tutorial, and many more.
(b) This site is very informational for everyone interested in learning more about these topics. The HTML tutorial takes you step by step to understand the functioning of html and the web. Putting up your web page in Unix link is not working. It gives a message of Not found, until further notice surf else where. HIGH SURF ADVISERY!
University of Hawaii

(a) The Link takes you away to the University of Hawaii at Manoa Website. It is well organized and nicely designed. Here you will find necessary information for school, registration, e-mail, athletics, and counseling.
(b) University of Hawaii has a great web site. The information is overwhelming. Freshmen as well as old timers could use this site to become a more savvy student. The best information located here is the registration for classes known as PA'E. Here you are able to check your GPA and register for classes. If I knew then what I know now I would have registered from home on my computer instead of the phone.
Search This Site by Keywords, Concepts, or Names (Link 17)
(a) Here you will find a search form like infoseek. You can type in a name, subject or a word for which you are looking for on Dr. James site and it will help find it for you.
(b) This Link is very helpful for a web site of this size. It is very useful for those who have a specific use for this page and doesn't have to fish around for the solution.
