Abstract
This paper presents some experience in developing and evaluating a new Web Based Learning project which was launched to serve the wide public audience. Technological and pedagogical considerations were included in the design. The effectiveness can be improved by the use of pilot class study in the middle of the development stage. Results are found to be useful in fine tuning the final courseware product. Post-implementation evaluation is performed based largely on online user feedback, together with other observations derived from the server log records.
