We are pleased to announce that the WebCT server installed on ecourse.hku.hk has been upgraded from version 1.2 to version 1.3 in January 1999. Contents of online courses developed with WebCT version 1.2 should not be affected after the upgrade. If you encounter any problems in using WebCT after this upgrade, please notify the undersigned immediately.
In WebCT version 1.3, there are some new features. For example, Selective Release of Content enables course designers to customise course content for individual students and release course material based on predefined criteria. With Netscape's Publish Feature, course designers can edit their course material with Netscape Composer and then "publish" them directly to the WebCT host.
