This paper describes progress on the CAL-Visual project so far. The partners are currently providing the project with their existing archives of construction images. When these have been classified and entered into CAL-Visual, they will constitute a comprehensive databank. To date we have found that these images are used in an uncoordinated manner. A significant task addressed by our project has thus been the development of a digital framework to support the efficient use of existing and new imagery. The framework development has involved investigating a number of classifications systems for the indexing of visual material and a review of hybrid systems for publishing visual material on the Internet, intranet and CD-ROM. Finally, the project is investigating the use of virtual reality (VR) models as teaching aids in lectures and as exploratory tool for students to use in place of construction site visits. These VR models represent a type of building through which tutors and students can navigate and access the information in the databank.
Publishing an imej Journal for Computer-Enhanced Learning Jennifer Burg, Yue-Ling Wong, Dan Pfeifer, Anne Boyle, and Ching-Wan Yip Wake Forest University Winston-Salem, NC 27109 imej@wfu.edu Abstract: Interactive multimedia electronic journals (imej journals) are a publication medium particularly suited for research in computer-enhanced learning. In this paper, we describe the challenges and potential rewards in publishing such a journal; present ideas for design and layout; and discuss issues of collaboration, copyrighting, and archiving unique to imej publications. Introduction Electronic journals have proliferated in the past five years, popularized by their accessibility, searchability, timeliness, and dynamism. Many publishers, universities, professional associations, and grant-supported agencies now offer extensive electronic libraries. Notable among these are Johns Hopkins' Project Muse, VPI's Scholarly Communications Project, Stanford's Highwire Press, Springer's Link collection, ACM's Digital Library, and the Mellon Foundation's JSTOR (Schatz and Chen 1999). (Also see (Treloar 1998) for a short summary of electronic scholarly publishing projects.) The majority of the online publications spawned in these projects are direct translations of existing hard-cover journals to electronic form. But along with these, a large number of entirely new Web-only journals are appearing as well. A good sampling of online journals can be found at http://gort.ucsd.edu/newjour/, which lists thousands. Web publishers all over the world are attracted to the electronic medium by low start-up costs and the potential for wide and varied kinds of communication. Pictures, scrolling messages, online interviews, and music have become common on popular and commercial Web sites, and scholarly electronic journals are beginning to explore the possibilities of multimedia presentation as well. Art, music, and science journals have been among the first to use multimedia effectively, drawing obvious benefit from the ability to display pictures, play music, or allow readers to visualize the otherwise unseeable. The other special facility of online communication -- interactivity -- remains relatively unexplored in scholarly communication. Few of the new journals allow readers to interact with what they are reading in ways that go beyond clicking on a play button, following a link, or joining a discussion forum. Interactivity is one of the most engaging features of the Web, and the one which promises to evolve most strikingly as Web technology is developed. Web users are intrigued by their window to the world, through which they can reach in, grab information, find out how things work, and communicate with others far away with an immediacy that never ceases to amaze. In the scholarly world, interactivity has great potential, since it might allow a reader to see, handle, replicate, verify, and truly understand the work of a colleague. Data can be manipulated, graphs redisplayed, programs run, 3-D images rotated, and experiments performed. Such uses of multimedia interactivity would distinguish Web journals as unique and valuable forums for scholarly communication. Multimedia interactivity of this type is more useful in some academic areas than in others, and computerenhanced learning is clearly one area where an interactive multimedia presentation would be most to the point. What better way to explain effective uses of the computer in teaching than to show the readers what can be done, allowing them to try things out themselves in a dynamic and interactive way These thoughts were our motivation for the founding of a new interactive multimedia electronic journal at Wake Forest University -- The IMEJ of Computer- Enhanced Learning (imej.wfu.edu). In this paper, we tell how we have dealt with the unique problems that arise in the creation of an imej journal, and offer our ideas on design and editorial policy. Our comments are directed to those interested in developing their own imej journal, publishing their research in such a journal, or considering the evolution of scholarly publication in the light of new technology.
