SynthLight

Overview

SynthLight is a multinational educational programme on energy efficient integrated building design in the urban environment.

The training material consists of a handbook, supplemented by advanced multimedia technologies such as VRML, stereoscopic images and videos and JAVA applets.

As well as the training material, a European Educational Infrastructure was created allowing the use of the teaching material by our partner universities and through distant learning.

An on-line assessment consisting of 60 multiple-choice tests is available for the students to test their knowledge of the topics covered in the handbook. On success, a Certificate of Attendance will be issued.
