There appears to be a fair amount of interest in producing parallel paper based and html based versions of 'lecture' notes. The usual arguements in favour appear to be:- 1) An unusual interface which may be more appealing to the students, 2) Digital search facilities, 3) Links to related areas, 4) Students can print out notes as required. My personal feeling is that this is to simplistic and that this sort of material should not be 'published' unless it contains some 'value added content'. Unless it is as an interim measure. I would appreciate other peoples feelings on this as we have been experimenting with an HTTP server for NOVELL (for both WAN and LAN delivery as you can restrict IP number access). ************************************************************** * Stuart J.
