Web‐based administrative supports for university students

Abstract

The virtual university campus through its virtual library can highlight a possible range of information retrieval systems and tools with a possible array of services including tailored Internet links, open learning texts, hypertext, CD‐ROM, audio‐visual materials, microfiche and telematics. However, as technology and resources are variable across the university sector in Business Schools/Departments, developments are not uniform. Focuses on the development of Web‐based administration supports for students at Liverpool Business School (LBS), part of Liverpool John Moores University. Observations on student usage and their perceptions of these supports were gauged upon the introduction of one site, in the 1998/1999 academic session. These developments complement module learning supports recently developed at LBS and the university wide student self‐service supports, which are currently in the process of being introduced.
