What is “E-Learning”?
“E-Learning,” or “online learning,” is the use of computer-based materials to provide training
content over a network, such as a companys intranet. Many companies provide tests for
employment candidates, information for new hires, and training materials for current
employees.
How does StreamAuthor fit into e-learning?
StreamAuthor enables you to create rich-media presentations by combining images, video and
audio files, documents, and other file types with PowerPoint files or other slides. The final
presentation can be viewed in a browser window or as a stand-alone video file.
