Inquiry in creating interactive CD Roms

[Phil Cash Cash]

Summer,

The Critical Languages Instruction Group here at the University of
Arizona has created a freeware called "MaxAuthor," a multimedia
authoring system for language instruction.  It is available for
dowloading at the following link.

http://cali.arizona.edu/docs/wmaxa/

Check out the most recent example lessons in Chemehuevi!  The UofA
Critical language staff (along with linguist Susan Penfield and I)
worked hard to make this happen with Chemehuevi speaker Johhny Hill,
who is among the youngest and few fluent speakers of Chemehuevi
remaining.

Did I mention that MaxAuthor is free?

Also, I hope that more responses from our ILAT list participants are
forthcoming as I too am interested in what people are using.  Anybody
using Macromedia Director MX or Authorware?  SMIL?

qo'c (later),
Phil Cash Cash (cayuse/nez perce)
