Abstract

This paper discusses some of the practical factors associated with the creation and maintenance of a Website supporting an online, postgraduate, tertiary-level subject, created and maintained largely by a single lecturer. The size of two subject Websites are described, some factors effecting maintenance, possible problems in adapting teaching styles to a simple Web page format and problems that may arise when the lecture of a subject changes or a visiting lecturer participates.
