Abstract
In recent years significant developments have taken place in computer mediated learning and assessment strategies. At the same time the higher educational environment is changing rapidly at both macro and micro levels. Overall issues include notions such as quality, modularity and mass delivery. Equally, each PC workstation can, for example, deliver computer based learning applications in a cost effective way. Thus this paper discusses some of the continuing issues underlying the development and use of PC software in structural mechanics and design on semi-cognate courses delivered by the Department of Building Studies, the School of the Built Environment, De Montfort University, Leicester.
