Abstract | This paper details a study into the development of a WebCT based learning resource, which was used to augment the delivery of a second year degree level module. The development of the learning resource was informed by the educational theories expounded in the conversational framework, Laurillard (1993). Subsequently, the resource was evaluated using criteria extracted from the conversational framework as a set of guidelines. It was found that all of the criteria could be supported to some extent, although in some areas the support was marginal. The learning resource was then evaluated by students who were asked to give details about which of the individual facilities were used, and beyond this, which were useful. The results of this student centered evaluation showed that the students did not consider several key facilities "useful." It is suggested that further work be done on developing a method for determining criteria, implementing a resource and evaluating the facilities for successfulness, as determined by students.
