Powell, James; And Others – Interactive Learning International, 1992
Describes a computer simulation called ICCARUS (Intelligent Command and Control, Acquisition and Review Using Simulation) that was developed for training fire officers in the United Kingdom. The integration of microcomputer-based software, videodisks, and audio material on compact disks into the simulation is described; and results of an…

Rumsey, Eric – Computers in Libraries, 1992
Describes a HyperCard-based simulation/tutorial for the Macintosh that is designed to teach users to search the Medline CD-ROM database on an IBM microcomputer. Results of a user survey are reported, and the potential of HyperCard for bibliographic instruction, including the use of the tutorial to develop transparencies, is discussed. (MES)

Winkler, John D.; Polich, J. Michael – 1990
This report presents the results of RAND research conducted at the U.S. Army Signal Center, Fort Gordon, Georgia, to evaluate the effectiveness of an interactive videodisc (IVD) system used to facilitate training in a variety of military occupational specialities. The objectives of the study were to: (1) develop a methodology for assessing the…

Pokrass, Richard J.; And Others – 1992
Burlington County College in New Jersey has integrated Interactive Videodisc Technology (IVT) into several of its programs, beginning with the college's nursing program. IVT, at its highest level, is a merging of a laser disc player, a personal computer, computer software, and a qualified instructor, designed to bring to students a new dimension…
