| Computer Managed Instruction (CMI),
can be designed and developed for a wide variety of application venues including Computer
Based Training (CBT), Web Based Training (WBT) and Distance Education. American Multimedia is a
total solution provider and systems integrator of
self-paced training programs, (Tele)courseware, and on-line reference systems.
These learning systems are cross-platform
compatible and client updateable. We can produce applications to inform and receive
feedback from employees, prospects, customers and shareholders with delivery options for
the Internet, LAN's, CD-ROM and other media.
Our services provide a system of integrated, open,
and scalable learning tools and technologies, which are programmed specifically for your
management needs.
Intelligent streaming and software technologies now
allow us to provide segments of web-packaged pieces before they're needed - even over low
bandwidth connections.
In order to meet your mission-critical training
challenges, programs are developed with the following component architecture:
- Network Infrastructure
- Communication Tools
- Interactive, multimedia content
Network Infrastructure
This component is the fundamental framework with a
main menu that will launch and integrate communication tools and/or content.
Learning modules are created and designed to be
media-rich and module-based. Program applications incorporate a balance of text,
graphics, audio, Video-on-demand, and database functionality for testing, recording and
reporting results. CD-ROM-web hybrids offer a way of combining disk and network delivery.
Communication Tools
A training network can contain three separate
applications to handle communication between students and instructors, other students, or
a remote training center: E-mail, Chat rooms, and discussion group bulletin
boards. Security can be incorporated through software encryption, language controls
and network firewalls.
Content
Instructional content and tutorials are designed to
provide a high degree of interactivity. Within each module students may encounter
self-assessment questions, simulations, instructional games or puzzles, or other items
that force them to be active learners.

Instructional modules can also contain the
following features, which will be available to the learner at all times: Glossary, help,
clipboard, reference bookmarks and student tracking, which are also available to the
training manager.
Corporate models can be designed to include content
for orientation, safety training, seasonal employees, upgrade certification for
candidates seeking promotions or other programs as directed by project managers.
Educational models accommodate integrated courseware with components for faculty,
technical staff, webmasters and students.
Project needs assessment
Technical specifications for servers, student
computers, and development languages will be identified in a needs analysis. The
instructional systems design will progress through the classic steps of system analysis,
program design, development, delivery and evaluation.
American Multimedia can provide services as a main
contractor, sub-contractor, or forge a true partnership or alliance. The
considerations of up-front development costs, lowering breakeven points, ROI and project
timelines all factor into a production arrangement.
