Abstract :
The Web is a popular platform for training educators and learners in educational systems. We find several Web based training systems that are developed by enterprises that try to train teachers and students to use Web technologies in educational settings. The rapid growth of the Internet and computer technology in recent years has sparked a demand for easily accessible and affordable learning solutions in corporate offices, classrooms, and homes. Traditional learning models are being challenged by the fast paced, real time environments available today. The purpose of the paper is to apply systems design principles to the design of Web based training systems for teachers and learners. Several issues are addressed, such as the development of an Integrated Learning Graphics System (ILGS) for a better learning environment. We develop a Web based learning system of computer graphics by Bezier, B-spline and NURBS algorithms. The purpose of the research was to increase the effect of computer aided design (CAD) in network. The other advantages are that a network browser is the common platform in Internet and intranet, the graphics system can be portable cross different operating system such as Windows 95, Linux, etc. In fact, the graphics system was an attempt at resource sharing
