Summary

This edited book gives a comprehensive picture of the state of the art in authoring systems and authoring tools for advanced technology instructional systems. Issues of authoring, cost-effectiveness, interoperability and re-usability have been at the forefront in recent years in educational software in general and in the field of advanced, adaptive and intelligent educational software more specifically. This book includes descriptions of fifteen systems and research projects from almost every significant effort in the field of advanced technology authoring systems. Included is a chapter comprising an extensive overview of the field, summarizing the work of dozens of systems and projects and providing an analytical framework for comparing them.
