Hello Chris/Jatinder# You might be interested to know that there was an LDN workshop in London last June that I attended which showed us how to create interactive materials using WORD. This was very interesting and revealed how to use text boxes, insert caption, tables and how to make a boring url look like a picture which is more engaging. You might like to contact Margaret Robson at Shipley College or her colleague Steve Hooton to see if they have any of the disks left. Hope this is of use Susan Eales Collections Manager - JISC DNER On Tue, 24 Apr 2001, Chris Kelland wrote: > Dear All > > I thought this might be of interest to the sector as a whole. > > Apologies if you receive this more than once > > Chris > > Chris Kelland > Education Officer, National Learning Network Project Support > Becta, Milburn Hill Road > Coventry, CV4 7JJ > [log in to unmask] > http://www.nln.ac.uk > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Jatinder Marwaha [SMTP:[log in to unmask]] > > Sent: Tuesday, April 24, 2001 10:53 AM > > To: [log in to unmask] > > Subject: Ferl invite > > > > Dear everyone, > > I hope that you are all well and enjoyed your Easter breaks.
