Open Tech Workstation

The need to develop new techniques of authoring and delivery of open learning material has led to a new generation of open learning workstations, the most recent being the Open Tech Workstation developed by the MSC's Open Tech programme. When fully exploited in an industrial training centre trainees at each Workstation can learn a whole range of technical information. The powerful computer and high quality graphics system allow the teaching of computer aided design drafting to be taught, with a live computer aided manufacture link with machine tools in the workshop.
