STELLA Projects
STELLA Projects
With members of the academic staff, STELLA introduced computing into undergraduate courses in English. From the beginning, principles important to us have been to use the technology to complement and enhance teaching, not to replace it, and to ensure that computers are used in ways relevant to our teaching methods and course content, as opposed to introducing computer techniques just because they are possible.
