A system being incorporated into the curriculum has been designed, developed and implemented which provides study skills support for students . The system is being further developed and is not currently available to the general public. It contains copies of the overheads used in lectures, audio annotation, animated images, and a VRML model of the relationship between stress and behaviour. A rationale for putting lecture support material on the WWW is presented. Contact information is provided.
Information is given on the tools needed for users to capture and browse the information off-line.
Estimates of loading times are provided. Developers based at the universities of Paisley, Edinburgh and Dundee produce self-contained modules, with a strong emphasis on interactive learning, which can be assembled into courses to suit the needs of any institution. Most of the development process is managed using internet-based communications. Most technologies available on the web are used, including applets, JavaScript, CGI, audio, video and animation. The material is platform independent, and accessible using standard browsers.
