Abstract

Execution status of a number of teaching processes distributed throughout a computer network are represented in a HTML document such that the status of the teaching processes can be observed remotely using a conventional HTML document viewer. In general, the status can be observed from any of a number of computers which can retrieve the HTML document through a computer network. To view the execution status of the teaching processes, an administrator uses a conventional HTML viewer to request the HTML document according to a file transfer protocol, e.g., the hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP). HTTP supports retrieval of HTML documents locally, i.e., within the computer in which a HTTP server executes, or remotely through a computer network. The HTML document includes user interface controls by which the administrator can invoke administrations tasks performed by the HTTP server. An administrator can observe the execution status of the teaching processes and can invoke administrative tasks from any of a number of computer systems.
