Exciting, well designed computer games are an excellent vehicle for getting your message across. Whether you are advertising a product or providing an educational service, focusing and holding the users attention is easier when fun is part of the process.

From the simplest level of game construction to advanced collision and complex motion paths, Animation Engine makes development a snap. Malte Brill will also be available for one-on-one training sessions during the entire conference. But that is just the start - continue to learn from Malte after the conference through an online forum where you can ask any question - simple or complex, your questions will receive individual attention from Malte.

Automating assessment and feedback using RunRev cgi in Web-based teaching

Dave Brooks teaches in the Department of Teaching, Learning, and Teacher Education at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. He specializes in the area of technology applications in science teaching. He has published over 150 articles, books, and software programs. His current efforts involve creating interactive Web resources for chemistry and chemistry teacher training. Much of Dave's current work can be reviewed at his Web site -- http://dwb.unl.edu.

Dave was involved in developing a series of Web-courses with extensive use of automatic testing and immediate feedback aimed at high school chemistry teachers. These courses used a HyperCard-cgi and WebStar with AppleEvents under Mac OS 9. In a first attempt at updating these courses to current technology, he made use of RunRev stacks. Today he uses RunRev cgi scripts and xml-lie files to accomplish the delivery of the courses.
