Abstract :
The National Science Foundation (NSF) Course, Curriculum and Laboratory Improvement (CCLI) project # DUE-0196015 is aimed to develop innovative Web-based and screaming media-based teaching and learning technologies to be used in advanced online education in information technology (IT) curriculum. It is hosted by the InterLabs Research Institute (IRI) at Bradley University (Peoria, IL). Today, streaming media technology is one of key driving forces that help to transform traditional higher education from narrow, local, face-to-face, in-classroom, one-teacher-based type of education into a global. Web-based, technology-based, learner-centered type of education and training. This paper briefly describes NSF CCLl project´s goals, developed Web-lecturing technology and developed online educational materials (OEMs) for advanced online undergraduate courses in IT area.
