Abstract

The use of Web-based systems in education is emerging rapidly. It seems that the web offers a large potential for (higher) education, although not many positive effects can be found yet. What is the potential of a Web-based system? In this article gives an overview of what Web-based systems are, how they are being used and what potential they have. The possibilities of Web-based systems, used as an integrated tool for courses, are discussed making use of the experiences of the TeleTOP project at the University of Twente in the Netherlands. The TeleTOP Web-based system enables instructors to add more flexibility, efficiency and enrichment into their courses, which will be demonstrated with some interesting examples.
