The quality of WWW-based learning depends on several critical success factors. Especially, the course material on the WWW should not represent a one-to-one transfer of written lecture notes. Added values like interaction and dialogue components, training modules, etc. should be provided. This paper introduces an approach of multimedia-oriented WWW-based teachware packages taking these demands i...

An increasing number of lecture recordings are available to complement face-to face and the more conventional content-based e-learning approaches. These recordings provide additional channels for remote students and time-independent access to the lectures. Many universities offer even complete series of recordings of hundreds of courses which are available for public access and this service pro...

In this lecture, I will draw upon my research career to present my latest ideas about career decisionmaking and career progression. Career decision-making was one of my first research interests, as part of a longitudinal study of the short-lived Training Credits scheme for young people, in the early 1990s. Based upon that work, I, Andrew Sparkes and Heather Hodkinson developed a new theory of c...
