Educational innovations
In a completely different context, we would like to take a look at digital education. The U-Cursos platform, launched at the University of Chile in the late 1990s, supports the organization of teaching material and interactions between teachers and students. Since then it has been expanded enormously and is now also used in various other faculties. This Internet technology allows teachers to autonomously create websites for their courses, upload teaching materials and make communication easy and efficient. U-Chile documents the development of this platform and its functions.
