Abstract

Interactive Multimedia Brings New Possibilities to Adult learning Card S. Lewis o more with less. This is the chal- students’ grades and interest levels have increased by lenge facing education today. Even significant percentages when interactive, visual, and though budgets, time, and human auditory computer-based tutorials are used for sonie resources are in short supply, educa- portion of infomiation delivery. tors are expected to improve results. In searching for Multimedia, i.e., the use of sight, sound, and action, solutions, forward thinkers are examining how we can offers much more than traditional “chalk and talk” take *advantage of technology to make education more teaching techniques. We have long known th’dt the effective and efficient. The widespread availability of use of relevant visual material increases interest and the personal computer and CI)-KOM technology has enhances recall and understanding.
