Abstract :
To counter the decreasing interest and understanding in the basic mathematic lectures in geodesy, it was decided to supplement these lectures with MATLAB. Due to licence issues, the MATLAB Web server was used, changing the lecture to a blended learning course. A special interface for the Web server was created for a better separation of content and Web server, and the system has proven satisfactory.
