What I was asked to do this
evening
Tell the story of how The Stuttering Home
Page started
 Show the Stuttering Home Page – take a tour
and share the challenges to keep it going
 Speculate where Internet resources are
heading, talk about some of the significant
changes I’ve seen in the area of stuttering
and where the field is heading

The Stuttering Home Page
A wonderful,
personal journey
Certainly haven’t done it
alone!
A few of the mentors and “heroes”
that have supported me in many
different ways
Some I’ve never met in
person!
It all started. . . .
“I just learned how to open
my email. . . . “ R. Brooks
And then Harry Krampf
mentioned “gopher holes”
I was discovering tons of
resources on the Internet that
could enhance my teaching.
Organized them into a
gopher site

Net Connections for Communication
Disorders and Sciences
– Section on various discussion forums I’d
found
– Section on other gopher sites I’d discovered
– Barely mentioned World Wide Web
Made lots of mistakes!
 Was amazed at the response I got!

Bob Brooks called me into
his office
Wanted me to teach his
undergraduate stuttering
course
 Take over some of his
clients who stutter
 Looking to retire in a few
years and wanted me to
consider teaching his
stuttering courses

It was clear that I was being
asked to take over the
responsibilities in the area
of stuttering for our
program and needed to
learn a lot and become
current
Signed on to

