Interactive Video—The Barriers Have Fallen

T he video industry has tumbled the barriers that once stood between the education and training community and the kind of affordable, adaptive interactive systems that you need. The time has come for interactive video to make its full impact on the way American business trains its people. This would be welcome news anytime. But the timing today couldn't be better. Not just in terms of the technology, but in terms of the instructional market. You can't open a newsPaper today without reading still another story about still another study on the crisis in American public education. The bottom line is always the same. American business can look forward to a much smaller selection of young people entering the work force. And those young people will be the most underprepared group since the advent of compulsory public schooling.
