Creating engaging, interactive simulations and tutorials

One of the greatest hurdles for instructors requiring students to use applications via a computer is to show a procedure or methodology in class only to have students come back and ask repeatedly to have it shown again.

Software such as Adobe (Macromedia) Captivate and Camtasia make it possible and practical for creating engaging, interactive simulations, demonstrations, and tutorials.

Breeze Presenter is a plug-in for Powerpoint for recording, editing and synchronizing digital audio with PowerPoint. All that is needed to create a Breeze presentation is PowerPoint, the Presenter plug-in, and a microphone or headset connected to your computer. Viewing a Breeze presentation requires only a computer with speakers or headset, a web browser and the Flash plug-in.
