Definition
- Web-Based Training (WBT) is mostly a form of Computer-Based Training and that generally uses a Learning Management System (LMS).
- It also is defined as E-Instruction or Web-Based Instruction or simply as E-Learning.
- See E-Instruction and more generally E-Learning for more.
History
- One of the first Web-based systems was WEST (Web Educational Support Tools) developed at University College Dublin in 1995 (?). It later evolved into the high-end commercial product [TopClass] System that is still sold. WEST back then contained already most of the features of a typical Learning Management System.
- It is interesting to know that even at the beginning of the Web on could find more advanced uses, e.g. Bertrand Ibrahim's [World-Wide algorithm animation] (Postscript file) presented at the [First International Conference on the the World-Wide Web].
Standards
