Dynamic Learning Online Microsoft Outlook 2007 Training


The Dynamic Learning Online (DLO) web-based Microsoft Outlook 2007 training utilises the latest in Cognitive Load Theory to quickly outline and teach Microsoft Outlook's latest features in a powerful and easy-to-use format. Twenty-two interactive online training sessions or activities, covering many of the important new features of Outlook 2007, are included.

Dynamic Learning Online offers a simple but powerful interactive method for training and testing yourself in the new Microsoft Outlook 2007. Our training methodology, which has been University tested, offers a simulated environment that does not require you to have Office 2007 or Windows Vista installed. Testing is also performed in a simulated manner, and provides a more reliable assessment of your skill level than multi-choice questions offered by other vendors.

While undergoing our training activities, you would appear to be working with the actual software, e.g. Word, Excel, etc. We provide full-screen images of the environment, explain the current situation and then ask you to click at a particular location. We also show you where to click by the use of an arrow. This methodology forms the basis of cognitive learning.

Major features of our interactive training programs include:

  • A powerful methodology, developed and tested by extensive academic research.
  • Interactive use of an arrow to guide users through a powerful but easy to use process.
  • Each training activity containing details of the number of steps and which step the user is currently on. Users can stop at each step for as long as necessary to understand the concept being taught.
  • A powerful inbuilt Learning Management System (LMS) that keeps track of user progress. Each activity allows for the following information: (i) Time taken to complete an activity; (ii) Status of the activity (completed or not); (iii) Last date launched; and (iv) Times attempted.
  • A choice of undertaking an activity on a step by step basis, or randomly selecting up to five different entry points to rapidly find the training area of interest.
  • Backward and forward buttons to quickly check previous steps to ensure understanding of the different training concepts.
  • Note as the online learning simulates all the relevant environments, you do not need to have any of the new Microsoft Office 2007 or Windows Vista products installed on your computer.

The Political Machine 2008




Ever thought you could run for President? Now's your chance with The Political Machine. Pick a candidate (real or imaginary) or design your own from scratch. Then choose a political party and start your campaign. The Political Machine puts players in the role of a Presidential candidate on the campaign trail making speeches, buying ads, hiring spin doctors and consultants, raising money, and going on cable news shows.

The Political Machine takes the real-world mechanics of political campaigning and uses it to create an award-winning strategy game. Raise money, hire spin-doctors, win the endorsements of important groups, go on TV interviews, take out ads, fight off smear merchants and much more in your quest to win the 270 electoral votes you need to get into the white house. The Political Machine puts players in the role of a Presidential candidate on the campaign trail making speeches, buying ads, hiring spin doctors and consultants, raising money, and going on cable news shows.

The Political Machine v1.5 includes vastly enhanced multiplayer features including supporting match-making via the digital distribution platform, Impulse. It also includes features allowing players to print out bumper stickers and campaign pins from within the game. Players can create their own candidates, controlling everything about them in how they look, and then export them as an avatar for on-line use or use the new print shop to create a variety of physical media with their creations including campaign pins, bumper stickers, and more. The update adds the new vice presidential candidates Joe Biden and Sarah Palin.

Your opponents can be controlled either by human players over the Internet or by a diabolical computer AI designed by Stardock's renowned artificial intelligence team. With multiple maps and scenarios to choose from, a candidate editor and much more, The Political Machine is not just a timely bit of fun during the campaign season but a strategy game that will stand the test of time.
