National Development Programme in Computer Assisted Learning

The National Development Programme in Computer Assisted Learning, directed by Richard Hooper, ran for five years and was characterised by a determination that:
a) Projects should strive to ensure that they became institutionalised, 'become part of the institution's brickwork and thus continue after the external funding ended. This was achieved in part by insisting on matched funding from the institution itself.
b) Rigorous financial evaluation and assessment of the learning outcomes
c) The results (for better or worse) should be widely disseminated
