COURSEWARE
Hi!
I’ve learnt
so many new things from this subject and one of it is courseware. I’ve never known
about it before and I bet you didn’t as well. Hence, this is only an introductory entry
about courseware.
What is courseware? Courseware is a computer programs or other material designed for use in
an educational or training course. Initially
available on CDs as course help for instructors and helping them manage
lectures, courseware has been revolutionized. It is now mostly available online
with various resources and supporting material (reference books, research
papers and journals). Courseware is especially used for online courses and
certifications such as Microsoft Certified Professional courses.
Courseware is an educational material
that is learned with the help of a computer. It can be in the form of a flash
drive, compact disk or material placed online. Courseware can include:
- Instructions on how to
divide a course in lectures
- Notes for instructor
regarding leading of classes
- Information for self and
computer-based learning
- Useful Web URLs for
related material
- Ideas of making a
distance learning class (those conducted over the Internet) interactive
- Video tutorials for
better learning
- Assignments, quizzes and
drills for better understanding
- Review questions for
better understanding
Courseware can be supplemental to traditional
classroom-taught courses, or can be standalone courses themselves.
That is all for now. I'll update if I gain another info about courseware.
