NLN Learning Materials Delivery Project

The NLN Learning Materials Delivery Project (LMDP) ran from March 2002 to July 2003 and succeeded the NLN Scoping and Appraisal Study, which took place from November 2001 to March 2002. The project investigated issues surrounding the delivery of the NLN materials. The NLN Materials, commissioned by Becta from a number of different developers, span the FE curriculum and can be easily fitted into existing teaching.

The Project was a collaboration between the NLN Materials Development Team (NLN-MDT) at Becta; the Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC)-funded National Data Centres, MIMAS and EDINA; and the JISC-funded Regional Support Centres (RSCs).
