Abstract

Topics within computer graphics still cannot be adequatelypresented and explored with traditional teaching methodologies andtools. An integrative approach to combine lectures, examples,programming exercises, documentation, supported by a commonsophisticated interface, is greatly needed. In this paper, wediscuss and present the concept, realization, evaluation, andexperiences of a computer graphics course that was developed at ourlab to focus on this need. It is one of the first complete computergraphics course on the World Wide Web combining course text,programmed examples, and course exercises in a common hypertextframework.
