ABSTRACT:
A system for presenting material in a tutorial and reference format. The system has a mechanism for capturing, creating and storing data representative of images for display to user and a mechanism for capturing, creating and storing data representative of commands for the user. A driver is connected to the storage mechanism for receiving data and for generating a simulation. The driver has a switching mechanism for selecting between a plurality of operational modes. The switching mechanism can be operated by the user at any time. A presentation device is connected to the driver for receiving and displaying the simulation.
The present invention is useful for many types of subjects, but most useful for learning how to use computer and software (e.g., editors, spreadsheets, word processors).
