Technology Used

What technologies and/or e-tools were available to you?

The main site uses static HTML & CSS web pages with additional information via RSS feeds from other sites such as the BBC and Netskills. The site also contains a news blog incorporated into the site but hosted by Blogger. There is also a Dokuwiki wiki, which acts as a space for staff to share anything they have found useful and feel others may too. The site also has a podcast highlighting aspects of e-learning at the University with an accompanying blog outlining how each of the podcasts was created. There is also an open discussion forum.
