The readily available and robust Web browser software and tools for Web software
development have made it relatively easy to design customized Web environments for
distance education and training. These environments may combine courseware resources
(hypertext pages, multimedia) and scheduling aids with tools allowing tutors, trainers,
and other participants to interact both asynchronously (email, computer conferencing) and
synchronously (audio and video links). The environments can be configured in different
ways to support different types of learning activity (individual, small group, plenary).
And they can contain aids for instructors for course design, class management, knowledge
structuring, testing, and evaluation.
