Using the Web in supplementary teacher education

In the last ten years, there has been considerable interest in the educational applications of electronic networking. The use of the WWW has been adopted into every aspect of educational life. The academic community supports the use of the Web as a tool to enhance teaching and learning. The problem is that the implementation of Web courses is not an easy task. This paper presents the available tools for developing Web courses and proposes an alternative approach. The implementation of Web courses for teaching trainee teachers in a supplementary teacher education course is also presented and discussed.
