Abstract
In this paper the development and use of multimedia-based courseware to sup port teaching and undergraduate laboratory sessions in the subject area of programmable logic control are discussed. The multimedia-based courseware d escribed is designed to be used by undergraduate students meeting programma ble logic controllers (PLCs) for the first time. Two developed prototype mu ltimedia packages are described.
