Group 3 Sample Web Page • Participant is now connected to this group through a Net Meeting type software which permits conversation. (see Note) • There is a Group Monitor assigned to this group • There will be a maximum of 10 participants in any group • All participants will be able to participate in the conversation • Program will run on various platforms Note: Although ultimately, this web site will be able to provide all of these items to the group participant, Phase 1 of this project will focus on completing items 1 – 3, allowing for the ability to enhance and expand to include additional items. It should be noted that the initial Phase of this project will only permit conversation between the Monitor and one participant for each group. Future teams will investigate allowing all group participants the capability of speaking during the session. CS451 Bloch Project
