<div class="">Dear all,</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">We are happy to officially announce the availability of <a href="http://e-neutrons.org" class="">
e-neutrons.org</a>: An e-learning platform for neutron scattering.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The platform was developed with support from NMI3-II (EU-FP7) and features an introductory course in neutron scattering and muon spin spectroscopy. The courses contain a varied selection of interactive learning material using three main technologies</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">1. A “WIKIbook” built on Mediawiki with various extensions, e.g. for producing mathematical expressions. It is used as the main source of textbook-material</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">2. A Learning Management System (LMS) built on Moodle which , provides exercises, quizzes and evaluation</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">3. A web simulator for the McStas neutron instrument simulation program, allowing users to perform virtual neutron scattering experiments on predefined instruments</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">The platform will be further developed and the learning material expanded in connection with SINE2020 (EU-H2020).</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class="">To access the e-learning portal, go to <a href="https://www.e-neutrons.org" class="">
https://www.e-neutrons.org</a>, choose “Get an account” and fill in your personal information.</div>
