Dear Colleagues
As a cornerstone of my DPhil thesis I've developed a 'Virtual Business
School Showcase'. It would be invaluable to me if you could take the time
to test it out, then post your feedback into the discussion area
provided. I will then be able to post these observations/ advice/
reaction/ experiences into the body of my thesis.
Below is an online newsletter which briefly explains the concept and
provides the links. Many thanks in advance.

VIRTUAL BUSINESS SCHOOL SHOWCASE
http://www.anbar.co.uk/products/virtual-uni/virtual-university.htm
Calling all distance learning providers:
Are your course materials expensive to produce and distribute, while
never being quite up-to-date?
Is the learning experience you deliver limited by your students
difficulties in accessing a decent academic library?
Do you have a problem with students feeling isolated and leaving your
programmes without completing them?
Anbar Electronic Intelligence has created this Virtual Business School
Showcase to demonstrate both our vision of Internet-resourced learning,
and real world examples of online distance learning provision being
delivered globally by our clients. A rich learning experience of
consistently high quality is eminently possible. Our vision of an
integrated environment encompasses automatically updated course
materials, a world leading online library with instantly available
full-text articles, networking and experience sharing among students
facilitated by the online tutor, and much more. We are delivering this
vision now with our international client base.
Evaluate our courseware with reading lists are never out-of-date? Attend
tutorials or participate in a conference. Relax in the faculty lounge, or
unwind in the student union. Once you have had the opportunity to explore
the site, please post your comments in the discussion area.
