It reads like an advertisement - and hey! it's on the Macromedia site - but this article is a nice introduction to the use of Flash MX for educational applications. The author touts especially the ease of use of the developer tools: "The interface is more intuitive, and makes seeing the big picture while authoring easier (big plus). The application comes with excellent integrated "getting-started" tutorials (yahoo!) and learning objects, like multiple-choice and drag-and-drop interactions." OK, but I will wait until somebody sends me MX to play with before commenting on that (hint hint). In the mean time, do take the tour of samples offered later in the article if only to help move your thinking beyond the world of printed text and page-turners.
