Abstract: Web Based Distance Learning (WBDL) is a form of distance learning based on providing instruction mainly on the World Wide Web. This paradigm has limitations, especially the lack of interactivity inherent in the Web. The purpose of this paper is to discuss some of the technologies the authors have used in their courses at Florida Atlantic University to overcome this lack of interactivity on the Web. The paper describes how technologies including Java/JavaScript, ActiveX/VBScript, a Web-based bulletin board, and Web Chat can make WBDL courses more interactive. (Contains 19 references.)
