CNN.com Offers the ABCs on Education

Aired September 5, 2000 - 9:31 a.m. ET

THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.

LINDA STOUFFER, CNN ANCHOR: You can always find a wealth of information about education on our Web site. Bill Hemmer is getting information about the ABCs at cnn.com; lots of letters for you.

Hey, there, Bill.

BILL HEMMER, CNN CORRESPONDENT: Certainly am. Linda, good morning once again.

I want to let our viewers now, when it is back to school time, a lot of information on our Web site about education, the issues facing a lot of students, teachers and parents across the country.

To let you know what is happening right now on our Web site, if you log on right now, the very front page, you will see it right here, a story out of New York City on education. Go ahead and double-click there, and then come on down here. This is the story from Deborah Feyerick of CNN in New York.

Then you can scroll down the right-hand side, a couple of things to point out here. You see that shaded gray area on the screen right there? That is the poll about how you believe, and how viewers, and folks who are on-line think about recruiting teachers and educators in the future, what may be the best method?

The other thing you do, continue scrolling down here, a number of video links to different areas, including one right here I find kind of interesting, just about kids going back to school this time of year. And computers having such a dominate role in their education, and a lot of school actually requiring students to have a computer at work -- or at school rather at work, sometimes school kind of feels like work.

But nonetheless, there is a lot on homework advice for you, and you can go ahead and scroll through and deal with a lot of issues as they relate to homework, home study, schools and computers.

The other thing, on a completely different, unrelated matter here. Go back out to our front page right here, and there is a new study that just came out of London. And let me see if I can get this right here on the most favorite albums ever produced by folks who want to go ahead and participate in this poll. Again, it came out of London so it is somewhat skewed toward British artists, but nonetheless, they give you the top 10 right here. The Beatles with "Revolver" is number one; but Radiohead checked in twice in the top 10. Personal recommendation, I would go with number seven, "Blood on the Tracks" by Bob Dylan. Again, personal recommendation.

But the other thing I want to point out, just below that, there is an on-line poll where you can vote for your favorite Beatle. Out of favoritism I will go for John Lennon. Right now, Lennon on top of Paul McCartney 44-36 percent.

So that is what you can do on-line, a whole lot of information there. Go ahead and log on, and you are welcome any time 24 hours a day at cnn.com.

Back upstairs now. Here is Linda.

STOUFFER: OK, Bill, thanks. I am sure Bob Dylan appreciates the endorsement there.

HEMMER: It's a great album.
