Macromedia Case Study: WGBH Boston

Overview WGBH provides a diverse menu of educational services in the public interest. Some of these services are broadcast over the airwaves; others take the form of books or CD-ROMs, online services or multimedia classroom tools. WGBH's challenge was to deliver a truly accessible interactive user experience, reaching users through sound, animation, games and educational simulations. WGBH turns to Macromedia Flash when it wants to deliver a truly interactive user experience, reaching users through sound, animation, games and educational simulations. With the introduction of XML and HTML support in Macromedia Flash 5, WGBH began building large Macromedia Flash applications with more text than was previously possible.
