Abstract :
Experience gained in producing interactive learning materials for distance education is now becoming important for on-campus programs. The application of videotape, videodisc, WORM disc and compact disc in interactive multimedia/hypermedia is discussed and it is argued that the advantages of the CD-ROM format over other media and formats makes it the preferred choice at this time
