The STELLA project (Software for Teaching English and Scottish Language and
Literature) has served the School of English and Scottish Language and
Literature at the University of Glasgow since 1987. We have produced
teaching packages and brought research databases and other resources into
use in teaching. All the programs have been thoroughly tested in the
classroom, and have been subjected to comment and detailed criticism by
thousands of students at Glasgow and elsewhere, and their teachers, since
their first appearance. The teaching packages combine text, online help, and
exercise materials.

Teaching Packages
The teaching packages to be demonstrated include:
English Grammar: an Introduction;
The Basics of English Metre and The Basics of Scots Metre;
ARIES: Assisted Revision in English Style;
The Essentials of Old English;
A Guide to Scottish Literature;
A Guide to Older Scots;
A Guide to Robert Henryson;
A Guide to Piers Plowman.

Other resources described will include:
a major research database, the Historical Thesaurus of
English<>;
STARN: the Scots Teaching and Research Network<>;
email discussion lists for Scottish Literature and
Language<>.
