1.1 Significance of the Study

This research is of significance to the domain of educational technology as it extends the knowledge base that currently exists in that field. The concept of Intranet technology is relatively new to the majority of educational institutions. The handful of schools who have chosen to embrace the concept and implemented the technology have welcomed the educational and administrative benefits it has to offer. Therefore, research which explores the advantages of such technology will help to raise awareness among those who are unacquainted with its potential applications and benefits within their educational setting. To illustrate the potential of a school-based Intranet the research investigated two institutions currently using the technology. The findings which have resulted from each case study have the capacity to impact upon the method by which electronic information literacy skills are currently undertaken in schools.

This study has been of significance to over 70 interested educators who wanted to learn more about the setting up process and application possibilities of school-based Intranets. In March, 1998 the study resulted in the formation of a Special Interest Group which offers members ongoing access to a virtual meeting place. The forum, which is still operative, was formed with the intention of fostering a collaborative approach whereby all members contribute and respond to questions, suggestions and ideas concerning the building, maintenance and integration of a school-based Intranet.

Noli me tangere, meaning "don't touch me" / "touch me not", is the Latin version of words spoken, according to John 20:17, by Jesus to Mary...
