Abstract

The mid 1990s has seen a significant growth in both the popularity and development of WWW based courseware and delivery. However, such efforts have been very variable in both effectiveness and comprehensiveness. This paper identifies a set of general requirements necessary in designing a pedagogically successful WWW based educational experience, which can be used in the assessment of WWW based educational courses. To illustrate how such requirements can be successfully addressed, the evaluation of a WWW based course which was trialed over a three-year period with approximately 300 students is presented.
