This paper describes a prototype-a self-authored project using the Internet as a platform for the dissemination of information relating to aspects of the social geography of Nottingham, UK. It addresses the issues related to the successful integration of specifically tailored, Web-delivered material as an integral part of an existing, traditionally taught geography module. An evaluation of this type of delivery as an enhancement to the undergraduate experience is discussed in terms of open and distance learning. This project has proved to be very successful and welcomed by undergraduates. It has also impressed colleagues who can see how the methodology could be adapted to their own modules-the time and effort involved notwithstanding.
