In contrast to a traditional book, where the learner reads a set of sequential chapters - each perhaps followed by a study section - this interactive electronic book emphasizes interactive questions with context-sensitive explanations. There are over 200 interactive question elements in the book. In combination with over 100 photographs, videos, graphs, and legends, the learner is provided with a rich and comprehensive learning environment. Performance on each major topic is automatically evaluated at the end of each section. Through repeated use of the book, this enables learners to increase their comprehension to the level of mastery. This interactive book will be available on
CD-ROM in 2006 and is compatible with Windows operating system
(ME/98/2000/XP) |

An abridged version of the interactive book on ecology is available online (at right). Because of limitations of the Internet, the abridge version lacks the full multimedia content and interactivity of the unabridged CD-ROM version of the book.
