  9. LtW –the re-development • Originally built (in 2001) as a pilot activity and has almost reached capacity • Built on technology that is becoming out-dated and we have little control of the site. • Architecture is fairly linear, the resources all accessed from the learning contract. • The look and feel is tired. • New platform - versatile, cutomisable, scalable web-based set of resources for WBL.
