The Design, Development and Use of a CD-ROM Resource Library for an Open University Course.

Jones, Mark; Kear, Karen; Reilly, Andy

British Journal of Educational Technology, v29 n3 p241-54 Jul 1998

Describes a CD-ROM containing a resource library for students in an information science/technology course at the Open University (United Kingdom). Development gave rise to several issues: adaptation of print-based content to the electronic medium; development of quality-control methods; and adaptation of staff roles. Feedback from students shows that the CD-ROM was well received. (Author/AEF)
