Designed and produced a CD-based electronic syllabus for a medical education conference.

I've produced a number of electronic syllabi for medical education conferences. They're mostly just a series of web pages that run off a CD that provides a simple auto-run for Windows-based computers. The Mac OS will not auto-run as far as my knowledge.

Electronic CDs like this are good medium for providing materials, but unfortunately are limited in the utiliy they provide to the attendee. People take notes, and the CD is virtually useless in this regard.

But a solution to this problem may be on the horizon, Adobe is set to introduce a new cross-platform run-time called AIR. With AIR, one could create a integrated learning tool that marries simple text-based note file functionality with the overall presentation, but one that is also Internet-aware to boot. Think about it.
