One of the big areas in using the Internet is the growth of distance learning. Interactive Presentations has been working with Innovative Technology in Education Limited (ITE) to create online courses to train car mechanics. These courses are distributed over the Internet or over an Intranet. Embedded within the courses are questions which are electronically marked and the results are sent to the online tracking system.
You can see various examples
if you look at Aspects
of eLearning.

Simple animation is used to illustrate how things work. Here when the contacts are closed. The motor then rotates.
The "Magic box" or in more prosaic terms - Signal Interface Unit links the web to real equipment. The coursework developed with Innovative Technology in Education Limited (ITE) includes a "virtual" starter motor circuit as shown:
The programme is delivered over the internet and the student clicks on the appropriate part of the circuit to move the probes. The virtual multimeter then shows the voltage at that point.
Working with Innovative Technology in Education Limited (ITE) and Micro-Process we have developed hardware and software which allows the student to use real measuring equipment. As a result, web based programmes can be used to train students and technicians on how to use real equipment. A virtual circuit with faults can be used to test the user's competence in both fault diagnostics and use of the equipment. The technician will then be competent to test a real circuit.

Interface Unit.
CD-ROMs provide you with the opportunity to include video, audio explanations and animations in your product documentation. We can help you do this in up to five different languages, improving your service to foreign customers or the performance of your sales staff. One of our associate companies EuromediaCall has produced a package that allows you to do this without any programming. We can provide you with a template and you can enter the data. Alternatively we will do this for you.

BAE Systems have developed a training facility for training Hawk pilots. This system is provided to the RAF under a Private Finance Initiative agreement. If the facility is down for any time it could cost BAE Systems money. Therefore they want to minimise the down time. At present the manuals produced are paper based. Interactive Presentations demonstrated how multimedia could help technicians to perform complex tasks quickly and efficiently.
