Abstract
The amount of access that students have to the WWW makes curriculum publication via this medium almost mandatory. We report on current work employing the WWW to publicise student laboratory class lists, illustrated lecture material and course information. E-mail was employed between the lecturer and students as an alternative to consultation. An examination was run via the WWW in a laboratory of computers. Responses were collated, marked and disseminated automatically via special software. The same software was employed to run a feedback questionnaire. Student evaluation of the WWW facility was favourable. The tedious and error prone nature of exam marking was also removed.
