Thesis/CBT...

[Damien Braniff <Damien_Braniff -at- PAC -dot- CO -dot- UK>]

Thanks to all who responded to my previous mail re suggestions.  It's going
to be project based and from the responses I received and my own research
it looks like it's going to be CBT/Multimedia learning.   Lots of
literature on the subject covering not just writing but learning theories,
psychology etc - should keep the academics happy!  I've started gathering
literature and am about to enrol in the local university library.  Basic
(proposed) structure is :

   Do the initial investigation - how people learn etc

   Investigate the tools available - which best meets the requirements
   (info gained from (1)), plus any constraints of cost etc.

   Develop tutorial/CBT/whatever(!!) - reasons for doing it as done etc.

   Critique - does it work as expected; if not why not; what to change;
   user feedback etc.

I've checked the archives and the main tools seem to be:

   Toolbook

   Demoshield

   Iconauthor

   Top Class

   Quest Net+

   CBT Express

   Authorware

Anyone know of any others?  All information on tools (web pages etc) and
any literature references will be gratefully received. As I said in my
initial posting, the real work starts now.

TIA
