Computer conferencing in a decentralized program: an occupational social work example.
Abstract
The author reports on the use of computer conferencing for program development in a decentralized educational counseling program. Working with union and management, a university-based program provides counselors in over 70 manufacturing plants throughout the country. Computer conferencing is used to enhance service delivery by creating "virtual meetings" for geographically isolated counselors. The study is a review of the conference activity and usage and concludes with a discussion of the correlates of successful conferencing and their application to other social administration contexts.
