Choosing Software:
Is the training going to be optional or mandatory?
Are you going to document completion and track who takes which training?
Is quiz functionality important? Do you have a LMS? If so, do you need a
SCORM compliant system? Do you plan to incorporate movies, web
objects, animations?
LAWTE Aug 2009 6
Why use a flash based module instead of simple PowerPoint?
Engaging simulations Animation tools Scenario based training Quizzes and/or learning games Language capability Incorporate audio, video

hours for classroom Resource intensive for Instructor & Learner
• Computer/Internet access & ability of learner• System configuration vary greatly/create
conflicts Lack of human interaction (asynchronous)
