Re: FLASH: attain

[Christian Vescia]

Attain is the branding that applies to Macromedia's learning products:

Dreamweaver Attain, Authorware Attain and Pathware Attain. It is intended

to communicate that all of these products are part of a larger system for

creating, delivering and tracking online training. There are key points of

integration between the tools in the Attain Enterprise Learning System.


Dreamweaver Attain is Dreamweaver with some learning-oriented functionality

built on top of it. Top three capabilities are 1) Knowledge Objects -

wizard-driven means to create interactions such as multiple choice, T/F,

Fill-in-the-Blank and other kind of questions and explorations 2) Knowledge

Track - automatic integration with a learning management system like

Macromedia's Pathware Attain 3) the Action Manager - a visual manager for

creating complex, state-less logic without have to know JavaScript.


Authorware 5 Attain is the next release of Authorware. The Attain part of

version 5 is also Knowledge Objects (pre-built routines and learning

interactions authored via a wizard) and Knowledge Track - automatic

integration with learning management systems.


There is no Flash Attain, but we are working on an Xtra for tracking

Director content into Pathware Attain.


Hope that helps.


Christian
