In recent years the interactive training capabilities available through multimedia technology have dramatically influenced the way in which technical material is taught. These interactive training programs feature training approaches combining graphics, audio, and video in an electronic environment that allows the user to create an individualized training process customized to each person's level of understanding and expertise. Procedural changes in collecting pavement distress information and in the pavement condition rating process itself have created an opportunity for the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) to develop a training package for its pavement distress identification program. This package demonstrates the capabilities of multimedia-based training within the pavement distress identification arena. The compact disc-based tutorial has been created for IDOT using Folio VIEWS multimedia production software and various other application software. The information contained in the program is from the Condition Rating Survey (CRS) distress manual and the Long-Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) program distress identification manual. Both distress identification procedures (CRS and LTPP) are presented in full detail, using text and graphics, to accommodate a greater number of users. The development of the training tutorial is documented, and some of the capabilities of interactive training tools are demonstrated.
