DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A WEB-BASED E-LEARNING SYSTEM FOR CONTINUING EDUCATION (CASE STUDY OF RIVERS STATE POLYTECHNIC, BORI)

68 PAGES (5980 WORDS) Computer Science Project
ABSTRACT
Research works in the field of electronic learning are represented by a broad spectrum of applications, ranged from virtual classrooms to remote courses or distance learning. In this project work I propose a simple web-based e-learning system, in which, students can carry out their registration process, get access to course materials and make contact with their course lecturers. In addition, teachers can track the activities of their students and can guide them to reach the pre-determined objectives of the courses. This system is used successfully in continuing education as well as in self-training. The feedbacks of both teachers and students were highly promising.
