Curious about Courseware?

  • November 4, 2011

What is courseware?  More specifically, what is LINC courseware? I am starting Stage One of the LearnIt2Teach program and am hoping to use the LINC courseware with my students in the future.  I still have not seen a live sample of LINC courseware.

If you want to experience “basic” LINC courseware surf to http://edulinc.ca/login/index.php, create an account and explore.  edulinc is an Open resource that also hosts many of the core LINC courseware elements.

Also, Edulinc.ca is enabled for mobile learning.  Click here for more information.
