Definitions

  • This invention provides a complete method and system for developing custom instructional materials in a portable memory device such as a videotape from materials that are a subset of a larger database of digitally stored instructional materials.
  • Videotape instruction materials are easy to understand and widely accepted.
  • One drawback of most videotape instructional materials is the lack of flexi ⁇ bility in presentation content.
  • Most videotape instruc- tional materials are standardized videos that provide only one approach to a given subject.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a method and system for creating a customized record of instructional materials at reduced cost, with better system integrity, reliability, flexibility and simplicity of user interface.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a method and system for creating a customized record of instructional materials which do not require computer skills to make high quality instructional videos that patients can use in their homes simply by placing a portable memory device such as a video tape in a home videotape player.

  • Another advantage of the invention is that it uses a more reliable read only memory with a CD-i player or digital video disk (DVD) player. This is in contrast to the PC-based systems that use read and write hard drive based memory. By avoiding the use of PC hardware, problems relating to component compatibility and soft ⁇ ware compatibility are eliminated. By using solid state hardware (television with a CD-i or digital video disk players) with read only software, reliability is maxi ⁇ mized.
