WebCT, short for Web Course Tools, is a powerful, easy-to-use software package for designing, delivering and maintaining online courses. The software resides on our WebCT server, and is accessible to anyone in the world who has an Internet connection and an account provided by the university. WebCT can be used to supplement a traditional lecture course, or courses in WebCT can be delivered entirely online to students anywhere in the world. WebCT is in use at more than 3,700 colleges and universities worldwide. For more information on the history and scope of WebCT and the new merger with Blackboard, go to http://www.webct.com/company.
WebCT has been used at Winthrop University since 1999. There are currently over three hundred academic courses on our WebCT server, including completely online courses, supplements to traditional classes, and courses that are being developed. Winthrop currently uses WebCT Campus Edition version 4.1.
