After a long career in education, Gleason Sackmann retired this year.
In 1998, he was awarded the SIG/Tel Educational Telecomputing Outstanding
Service Award, and in 1996, he was rated #10 on NEWSWEEK's prestigious List
of "50 People Who Matter."
Over the years, Sackmann moderated several important newsletters for
educators: K12 NEWSLETTERS, NETWORK NEWSLETTERS, and NEW-LIST. From 1993 to
2004, he published NET-HAPPENINGS. Net-Happenings covers conference
announcements, calls for papers, network resource announcements,
newsletters, and network tool updates. Over 9,000 individuals currently
subscribe, with many more readers through the website and mail redistribution.
Net-Happenings will continue publication under the direction of Karen
Ellis, founder of the Educational CyberPlayGround website. As one who has
benefited from Gleason Sackmann's work over the years (including his
distribution of Infobits in his publications), I would like to express my
appreciation for his tremendous contribution to the educational and
Internet communities.
