The web-based approach that has been established, I think, works great for all the kinds of learning that we're carrying out, and probably, if anything, we should figure out how to extend it.

I think that networking should be included because I think what we have to realize, like everything else, is "How do we take advantage of change and the way people learn?" Growing up with a situation where if I didn't see somebody face to face or I didn't talk to them on the telephone, then anything written down on a piece of paper or a computer or whatnot was not very important, is very different than the exchanges that take place in, if you will, a few generations younger than I am.

I think, since you're talking about crossing generations in terms of mentor and mentees in these programs, we have to do a better job of working, probably with the faculty, to begin to interact and use this more systematically. Everybody lives that way, and I think, having talked about that one of the major goals for our CDIs is this kind of social networking, it can't all take place face-to-face.
