New Media Research Institute

March 2004
For this project to create interactive Java-based software products, the Institute will be working on a new effort to automate the pedagogical evaluation of learning software through the development of "evaluation layers" that can be programmed by education experts to test the users on their knowledge before and after the use of the software. The Institute is working on a subcontract with the University of Wisconsin, and will be subcontracting educational content development in the area of marine ecology to UCSB's Marine Science Institute and PISCO project.
