Abstract
Advancements in Web technology are changing learning paradigms. In thi s paper we relate various learning paradigms to existing technologies and describe two approaches in IRI to use Web technology for synchrono us sessions: Web steering and control and automatic content synthesis using the Web. IRI (for Interactive Remote Instruction) is a computer- based system to support distance education developed at Old Dominion U niversity; it is being used to teach courses with sites up to 200 mile s apart.
