Trainers and Educators can use Smart Interactive Multimedia Publishing to produce materials that combine the best features of Print publications, the Internet and conventional CDs. And SIMP™ training and educational materials add extensive smart features. Darnell.Com's SIMP™ technology is so unique that it is protected by a series of patent applications. No other publishing technology can match the capabilities and ease of use inherent in Smart Interactive Multimedia Publishing™.

SIMP™ is capable of remembering whatever is important about your students, instructors and other users such as language preferences, application interests, location, and more.

Education or Training SIMPs™ are inherently flexible and easy to use. You can deliver large volumes of information to diverse audiences of users and your SIMP™ will be able to remember individual users and will target content based on their specific needs and interests.

Education/Training SIMPs™ can make dynamic presentations in which a single screen includes variable content. And your SIMP™ can appear to "reconfigure" itself based on the interest and needs of individual users.

Images and other content in your SIMP™ can be made sensitive to the needs of individual users. Lesson plans on a Training/Education SIMP™ can automatically change as a result of the user's performance on the most recent quiz or test. Areas of weakness can be reinforced and areas of strength can receive relatively less emphasis in subsequent lessons.

Education or Training SIMPs™ can include timed tests and automatically display a "time expired" message at the end of the allotted time.

Your SIMP™ can include smart forms in which selected information is automatically included based on the known interests and preferences of users.

Even the printouts from your SIMP™ can include smart content. For example, a printed form can automatically change to include cumulative performance information, comparative information, or other useful information targeted to the needs of the individual user.

The ability to remember the needs and interests of individual users combined with Smart Content enables SIMP's™ to make customized presentations. Your Training/Education SIMP™ can remember individual users and create customized learning environments based on their needs and interests. A SIMP™ learning environment can administer a test or quiz, grade the results, and present a subsequent lesson tailored to specific areas of weakness.

Individualized presentations can display variable information based on numerous factors such as the current date, native language preferences, specialties, location, previous test results; whatever is important about the users of your SIMP™. The adaptive learning environment on your SIMP™ can be made sensitive to any number of factors such as the following:

• Time/Date
• Language
• Specialty/Subject
• Difficulty level
• Location
• Test results

By remembering users and employing smart content to treat them as individuals, your SIMP™ will enable you to build state-of-the-art learning environments, not just textbooks.

Individual Students, Trainers or Teachers, Administrators, Any individual or Group

The ability to include confidential information that can be viewed only with the correct password greatly enhances the value of your Training or Education SIMP™. You can include any private information such as teachers' guides, answers to questions on tests and quizzes, advanced lesson materials, extra cost seminars, whatever you need to deliver for the private use of specific users.

Private content on a SIMP™ is encrypted to prevent unauthorized viewing and protect your confidential information.

The smart content on your Training or Education SIMP™ can include private information that can be viewed only by individuals with the correct passwords. Since you will control the distribution of the passwords, you will control access to this confidential information.

Your Training or Education SIMP™ can include numerous interactive tools.

• Drills and exercises
• Tests and quizzes
• Cross-references
• Searchable databases
• Lesson guides
• Reference materials
• Forms and documentation

Your Training or Education SIMP™ can include numerous interactive tools. For example, your SIMP™ can include lesson plans and exercises that are modified based on a student's performance on a previous test or quiz. A SIMP™ learning environment can be structured to "hide" advanced material until students have demonstrated proficiency on prerequisite materials. And your Training SIMP™ can include multiple searchable databases.

In addition to remembering explicit user interests and preferences, Training/Education SIMPs™ can track and remember a variety of activities such as:

Activity Reporting enables SIMP™ producers to create adaptive and personalized learning environments, improve the performance of future editions and quantify their return on investment.

SIMPs™ can automatically report only generic results. CD-ROMs such as SIMPs™ cannot be individually identified and feature inherent privacy protection. Individuals can only be identified if they explicitly identify themselves.

SIMPs™ can report user activities to a remote Internet server at Darnell.Com. If your SIMP™ incorporates activity-reporting capabilities, you will be provided with a hidden password protected SIMP™ Activity Reporting page where data will be reported in real-time.
