With the increase in cost and resources constraints experienced by many tertiary institutions globally, the pressure to find alternative methods to deliver teaching and assessment increases.

With this predicament in mind the Computer Supported Learning System (CSL) is a web-based teaching and learning resource and administration system, developed by the Business Education On -Line Unit of the Auckland Business School, at the University of Auckland (New Zealand).
