COMMACK, NY (August 10, 1998) — eShare Technologies today announced that Yale University's Center for Advanced Instructional Media has selected eShare's award-winning Expressions Interaction Suite to support the development of their newest educational tool. Supplementing the University's more traditional training and educational methods, eShare Technologies Expressions will be used as the foundation for their new interactive intranet training and education system. The Expressions Interaction Suite, which transforms Web extranet and intranet sites into thriving online communities, will be used to host moderated online presentations to Yale staff members by guest speakers. In addition, the Center will use the Suite to host a bulletin board to enable staff members to post questions and receive answers regarding new financial and accounting systems. By allowing staff members across the University to attend training and chat sessions from their offices, the Suite is expected to save travel expenses and permit more staff members to attend presentations.

Use of the Expressions Interaction Suite is part of an effort at the University to expand the application of their university-wide intranet for staff training.

"Of the solutions we evaluated, Expressions clearly offered the very best price performance," commented Philip Simon, Director of Operations for the Yale Center for Advanced Instructional Media. "As a leading specialist in training education, the University is always developing new communication methods. The Expressions Interaction Suite gives the Center for Advanced Instructional Media the ability to develop new web-based interactive training solutions."

Before selecting the Expressions Interaction Suite, Simon evaluated alternative products including internally created software, but felt that the eShare product was the best product available. Simon has been pleased with his choice. "We are very pleased with the ease of installation and modification and the performance on the server. And the support from the company has been excellent," said Simon.

As Simon's department develops experience with Expressions, he expects other groups within the University to adopt the software for faculty and student training.

Other leading educational institutions including Tufts University, Columbia University, and over one hundred other high schools, colleges, and universities, have also selected Expressions Interaction Suite to enable distributed and distance learning.

The eShare Expressions Interaction Suite provides Web, extranet and intranet sites into interactive online communities of customers, employees, suppliers and users. Providing live communication and threaded discussion forum components, the Expressions Interaction Suite is easily customized using wizards and WYSIWYG setup and editing tools. Users of the award-winning community-building suite can select from such modules as Chat, forums, Web Tours, Moderator and Integrator Pro.
