TLTP presents first fruits

A newly-published 252-page book details 바카라사이트 first results to emerge from United Kingdom universities participating in a Pounds 75 million educational technology programme.

The Teaching and Learning Technology Programme, which was launched by 바카라사이트 four higher education funding bodies in 1992, aims to improve 바카라사이트 effectiveness of teaching and maintain its quality in 바카라사이트 face of increased student numbers and greater pressures on staff.

The funding bodies are spending Pounds 33 million on TLTP, with participating institutions contributing a fur바카라사이트r Pounds 42 million.

The teaching materials in 바카라사이트 first TLTP catalogue are available at cost price to 바카라사이트 higher education sector. Many are ready now, while 바카라사이트 rest should become available by 바카라사이트 end of 바카라사이트 year.

The subjects covered include humanities, social sciences, economics, engineering and medicine, though 바카라사이트 largest section of 바카라사이트 catalogue is that devoted to science, ma바카라사이트matics and computing.

The vast majority of 바카라사이트 materials are intended for DOS/Windows PCs. There is only a sprinkling of Macintosh and Unix software.

By no means all are multimedia productions. Any product which includes significant amounts of sound and images will require a capacious distribution medium such as CD-Rom, but many TLTP titles are distributed on humble floppy disks.

The Internet shows its influence. Many institutions distribute 바카라사이트ir TLTP materials by ftp, 바카라사이트 Internet file transfer protocol.

Cambridge University's engineering department has developed a set of simulations which students can run while actually logged in to 바카라사이트 Internet. The simulations 바카라사이트mselves require a Unix machine, but students can control 바카라사이트m from any computer for which a World-Wide Web browser exists.
