With the advent of the institutional learner management system (LMS) a new opportunity opens up.

Re-usable content.

It becomes clear that, although the computer-based-training models were not taken up by all, there is some value in the design of an institutional learning environment that can easily be transported to and incorporated into other learning objects and that this learning object adds value without placing strain on lecturers to design their own.

One model that works extremely well is to have a general module on entrepreneurship that can be incorporated into most under graduate career-focused curriculum.

Research paper 

During the early years on the use of technology I presented this paper at the 2001 Telematica conference in St Petersburg, Russia.

It dealt with the online teaching methodologies used to teach project management to engineering students using online technology. Most of the technology at the time were static html and client installations required on their own desktops. That meant lecturers had to set up and prepare before the time and hand a CD to students to install on thier own PC. Communication used email accounts – not really any synchronous activity here. Most of the problems experienced were around connectivity.
