Abstract

The present invention provides an authoring tool (10) which simplifies the authoring and editing functions of a simulated training system. The authoring tool (10) utilizes a development tool and method (40) which condenses authoring, editing and testing into one environment. This authoring tool, (10) referred to as the learn mode courseware tool, includes a user interface (70) which permits the author to produce, edit and test procedural logic structure. In addition, the system (10) permits the author to preview audio, video, and graphics displays, and also permits the author to interact with a representation of many trainer devices (18, 20, 26) at a single trainer device (32).
