| E-Learning Award for Innovative Application of Learning Technology The prototype Signal Interface unit created by Micro-Process with software by Interactive Presentations was created for Innovative Technologies in Education Ltd. In 2006 a variant of the interface unit won the E_Learning Award for Innovative Application of Learning Technology. Extract from the e-Learning Awards website "The second annual E-Learning Awards, held at the Royal Garden Hotel in Kensington, celebrated the best that the industry had to offer. The glittering evening was co-ordinated by e.learning age magazine and the eLearning Network and competition was fierce with twice as many companies competing for the 11 prestigious awards.

This allows users to be trained not only on the properties of circuits but to be trained on how to use REAL measuring equipment. Students can be trained in a virtual world before being let loose on expensive real equipment. The interface unit is driven by software written in Toolbook.

For an overview of the functionality of the Signal Interface Unit and how it fits in with other innovative software, particularly diagnostic software click here. We are Proud We at Interactive Presentations are proud to have been involved in the project and in particular being able to turn the ideas of Jon Winter of S and B Training into reality.
