Re: FLASH: non-flash tutorials?

[Stephen J. Pintauro]

Hi,

I have used Flash to develop some tutorials related to clinical nutrition.

Specifically, tutorials on methods of human body composition analysis (not what

you typcially see on this list :)).  Also, one of my students last year did a

great tutorial on the Kreb's Cycle (for you biochemistry buffs out there).


You can find these at the tutorials at:

http://nutrition.uvm.edu/htm/fs_inter.htm

Just select "tutorials".


As far as articles/research is concerned, there are a lot of good journals on

the topic of learning application of information technology.  You may want to

start with a site that I use often.  It is a resource of educational technology

links.


http://disted.tamu.edu/~kmurphy/edtclink.htm#Journals


Another good online journal is T.H.E. Journal (Technological Horizons in

Education), at

http://www.thejournal.com/


Hope this helps,

Stephen Pintauro
