Analysis, Design, and Implementation of a Web-Based Training System for Multi-Criteria Decision Support, Integrating Hypertext, Multimedia-Based Case Studies and Training Software

摘要

The objective of the study is to propose a new learning medium, which takesadvantage of the latest developments in computer based training (CBT) and the World Wide Web as an innovative mode for delivering education. The key research focus of this thesis is the design of the framework to best combine hypertext technology, computer based training functionality's and interactive multimedia to enhance learning effectiveness. This research also focuses on the interactive multimedia to enhance learning effectiveness. Additionally, this research incorporates the migration and enhancement of a multiple criteria decision support textbook from print media to electronic media. Lessons learned from this development effort will be used to derive a general framework for developing integrated web based CBT tools. A multimedia training module prototype developed during this research can be viewed at HTTP://WWW.CIMNET. NPS.NAVY.COM/COOP.
