Book Description
With International Data Corp. projecting e-learning to be an $11.5 billion industry by 2003, the demand for interactive multimedia learning applications is on the rise. And Macromedia's Studio MX design tools--including Flash MX, Dreamweaver MX, and ColdFusion MX--provide the ideal solution. But figuring out how to combine these products to create the perfect active-learning applications for your purposes can be tricky--which is why you need Macromedia MX eLearning: Advanced Training from the Source.
Using project-based lessons, e-learning specialist and veteran author Jeffrey Bardzell takes you through the paces of these solutions, demonstrating how you can use them to create e-learning applications for both academic and corporate environments. Moving at your own pace, you'll learn by doing through the tutorials and hands-on instructions that have become the hallmark of this popular series. By the time you reach the end of this volume, you will have built four e-learning projects: one in Dreamweaver, two in Flash, and one that uses ColdFusion, Dreamweaver, and Flash to create a front-end for a complete ColdFusion-driven Web application. In the process, you'll learn how to create drag-and-drop interactivity, fill-in-the-blank dynamic text, hotspots, and a host of other useful e-learning features, including how to track scores and provide on-the-fly user feedback by connecting to a database through ColdFusion. Whether you're a corporate or government trainer or an educator grappling with the challenges of distance learning, you'll find what you need to provide the training your people require in Macromedia MX eLearning:Advanced Training from the Source.

Customer Reviews & Comments
This book gives you a broad scope of the to be used topics when creating elearning sites. You will get a quick tutorial of the most important Macromedia features to get the process done. In a clear way building up from using templates, attaching stylesheets, showing and hiding layers with Dreamweaver and using Flash for simulation and user-interactivity the book introduces the interaction with databases by using Coldfusion. I thought Coldfusion was rather difficult to learn, because the tips of the week by Macromedia were a little to quick for me. But Jeffrey Bardzell proved it is easy. In a straight-forward way you are taken by the hand to take all the basic steps for building a data-driven website.
