Abstract
An education-oriented workshop for college faculty in the atmospheric and related sciences was held in Boulder, Colorado, during June 1997 b y three programs of the University Corporation for Atmospheric Researc h. The objective of this workshop was to provide faculty with hands-on training in the use of Web-based instructional methods for specific a pplication to the teaching of satellite remote sensing in their subjec t areas. More than 150 faculty and associated scientists participated, and postworkshop evaluation showed it to have been a very successful integration of information and activities related to computer-based in struction, educational principles, and scientific lectures.
