  Sadly, many organizations place documents on the Internet/intranet sites and showcase them as online studying. It isn't. At most it's an Electronic Performance Support System (EPSS) when people access rules together with procedures, legislation and some other related information. True, people may learn something from reading their firm's guides. That's great! But my view of learning (and a few of you will disagree) is that this must be structured and include a form of assessment. I don't deny the existence of many other learning, including hidden curricula, but from your practical perspective, if you can't measure a change in the learner's skills, knowledge, or attitudes, then you really don't know when learning occurred.
  
  Combined with these difficulties is the indegent access to broadband networks in other than the major capital towns, cities. This means that this is the brave organization that produces instructional media with audio/video content with zero guarantee that anyone will actually be capable to access it. This version of media works well on CD-ROM computer aided instruction programs, kiosks and sales media, but not necessarily on the internet.
  
  So what are the solutions? One day we'll get up and Internet delivery will manage to lightning speeds, virtually no wait times with prices that are small. In fact, pundits expect free Internet access could be the norm within a few years. You'll simply talk for a microwave and it might download an Internet selection for apple pie with crumbed biscuit on top - yum!
  
  Till then, my advice is to use multiple media. When you design your instructional sequences include multiple alternatives for delivery, interaction and assessment. There is no reason why you can't integrate some sort of telephone networking session with online delivery of published media. Or use some sort of chat session to follow-up some sort of classroom session. Email might be used to gauge person progress through questioning techniques. An objective test can be designed, delivered and proclaimed online. Audiotapes are still extremely helpful, especially if you work for an organization that has staff traveling 1000s of kilometers in motor vehicles annually, as I do. (Their travel time period is more productive)
  
  Information can be downloaded as compressed ZIP, Abobe PDF or MICROSOFT Windows files, read online in HTML, or the different above. Students can end up assigned to teams to help collaborate and achieve set project outcomes. And someplace, if you must, you may have the 90 mb video/audio video clips of yourself discussing particle physics - should someone is able to help download it.
  
  Not only is multiple media good for accessing the differences within learning styles and scientific capabilities, but it provides people with options. Everyone these days wants options; the even more the merrier.
  
  Although using multiple media is time consuming, it's an excellent way to train your learners so they will be technologically ofay when the big day comes and everyone can learn through some of our microwaves. Hang in truth be told there, it can only get better.
