II.1.4) Short description
The College of Engineering has around 3200 undergraduate students at the Bay Campus and we are seeking to extend our provision of on-line blended learning support software in the areas of Engineering Mathematics, Structural Mechanics and Fluid Mechanics. We aim to use such software for the provision of on-line learning material, such as e-text books, worked examples, animations or videos, as well as for embedded formative and summative assessments, which include automatic and immediate marking and provision of feedback where required. For each aspect of the software provision (mathematics, mechanics, fluid mechanics), there would be around 800-1000 student users each year and we are seeking provision of software for a 3-year period to include staff training and student user guides.
The required software provision is split into three separate lots and we invite tenders for any of the lots individually or in combination.
