Talk to "real" people
Although extensive work has already been done, there is a need to tailor anyone else's work to the needs, resources and constraints of each individual institution. Supercomputing '95 , Dec. 3-8, San Diego will be an excellent opportunity due to its strong Education Program. The Advance Program is now available electronically http://www.sdsc.edu/SC95/ and the Education Program may be of particular interest http://www.sdsc.edu/SC95/edupro.html

Watch out for "info overload"
Information technologists are still working on the human interface to information, as well as the human interface to the computer. At the moment, the overwhelming amount of available information available, with little or no facility for peer-reviewed critical evaluation, puts a tremendous burden on the seeker of information. This may be a student, or faculty member, or staff member.
