On-Line Course User Interface

On-line courses are offered via a high speed internet portal at the Georgia Tech Distance Learning Computer Center. All user interfaces for the SCMS on-line courses were developed, under the direction of Dr. Frazelle, by the Georgia Tech Distance Learning organization using state-of-the-art software including the WebCT Learning Management System. The interface provided by WebCT is primarily point-and-click and can be learned by anyone capable of using a web browser such as Internet Explorer. There is no software to distribute, and no experience with HTML or other technical knowledge is required.

SCMS course materials are presented on-line via streaming video presentations synchronized with PowerPoint slides for each course – over 18 hours of video presentations shot in the live Georgia Tech classroom setting. You will receive:

  • All PowerPoint slides used in the presentations.
  • Extensive course notes – complete transcriptions of live classroom presentations.
  • Other streaming video clips demonstrating the operation of important logistics systems.
  • Photo galleries highlighting the operation of important logistics systems.

Participation is handled via Georgia Tech's WebCT, and is very easy to use.
