Abstract

The great strength of videodiscs for education is that they provide quick, random access to a large number of short video clips and images. However, the amount of material available can make it difficult to find the particular video clip or image that is needed. Computer control of the videodisc player can help by providing more convenient search capabilities and controlling video playback with the click of an on-screen button. Videodisc Browser 2.0 takes computerized videodisc control one step further by providing many descriptions and points of view of a videodisc, each designed for a different way you can use video. It can be used with any videodisc for which descriptive data are available and can be customized to meet individual needs.

Videodisc Browser 2.0 automatically recognizes three JCE: Software videodiscs, The Periodic Table, ChemDemos, and Titration Techniques (). As new videodiscs are released by JCE: Software, text files allowing similar control capabilities will be developed for them.
