WEB BASED LEARNING SYSTEM TO USE WebCT - Ed Meachen, Associate Vice President for Learning and Information Technology at UW-System (UWS), recently announced that UWS would provide system-wide support for two years to develop a web based learning system (WBLS). Using a "utility" model with WebCT as the delivery tool, WBLS will provide the entire UWS with access to and support for a web based learning environment physically housed at the Division of Information Technology at UW-Madison. The WBLS will be available for piloting about 25 courses in early summer '99 and be available to UW Institutions for 300 or more courses and at least 15,000 students for the fall semester '99.
