Interactive Video: When to Consider Its Use.
Brandt, Richard
This paper describes some applications in which interactive video is being used, demonstrates why it is being used, and proposes some rules to help determine when interactive video should be considered as an instructional delivery system. The document includes background on the development and application of videodisc players in education and training, a list of organizaions currently using interactive video and the subject applications, and a discussion of both generic and specific laserdiscs. Based on a review of current literature, a number of situations when interactive video should be considered as a delivery system are presented: (1) to gather together a large collection of multimedia material such as slides or a mixture of slides and motion sequences on film or video; (2) a large number of learners are distributed over time and place; (3) teachers with subject matter expertise are in short supply; (4) equipment simulation is required; (5) simulation of a potentially dangerous situation is required; (6) the situation requires continuous practice and/or retraining; (7) the subject matter is relatively stable; (8) the training involves the teaching of processes, procedures, problem solving, and decision making; (9) learners vary in experience and/or entry level skills; and (10) there has to be a better way. A 44-item bibliography is included. (THC)
