Web-Based Graduate Diploma in Computer Sciences
El-Khouly, Mahmoud M.
E-Learning, v4 n4 p464-470 2007
With support from the Higher Education Enhancement Project Fund (HEEPF), the Faculty of Science at Helwan University (Egypt) has constructed a number of online courses in support of the graduate diploma in computer sciences programme. All courses in the diploma have a web presence, and the course offerings are now moving towards a much more interactive mode of learning, utilising online testing systems and collaborative learning, and incorporating elements of active learning. Starting from web-based learning, the site is preparing for the advent of "distance education" by creating a multimedia CD for each course in the diploma programme. (Contains 3 figures.)
