I fully agree with you. Multimedia is not what we need to engage learners although it helps a little with
motivation. and we don't need to do what CBT already has done. I'm looking for ways people in my field (Early
Childhood Special Education) can teach difficult concepts via Web-based training and engage learners. These faculty
who are teaching workshops to child care workers, administrators, early interventionists, preschool teachers are not
going to have the funds to utilize high end multimedia. Theyare going to have to tap their utmost creativity and
teach with real world situations using all we know about learning. Let's keep talking. I think this is a very
important concept. I think one key skill for them will be the art of questioning. The other will be creating
engaging stories or cases (Spiro's) work. Other ideas...references...??? Thanks
P.S. I'm a doctoral student working with Web-based instructional design so this is doubly fascinating. I'm currently
writing an 18 hour Web-based workshop to help others develop their own Web-based training.
