Long distance learning was an offshoot of the DVD instructional learning. Infocard got into DVD and CD ROM-based learning early on in its development. Being able to put your lessons onto DVDs or in some cases interactive CD-ROMs is an absolute must for many businesses. There is a specific way that people do learn from DVDs. I have to admit, most DVDs I see are poor at best when it comes down to teaching someone some particular thing. Most DVDs are merely online presentations versus educational approaches.
A learning DVD or a student DVD should be such that the viewer will never see the teacher in the real world. The viewer should never need to see the teacher if the lessons are done properly. For example in martial arts, if there is a martial arts

DVD Instruction or rather instructional DVDs need to be produced in a very specific way!
technique you're attempting to show or teach via DVD or interactive CD-ROM, that technique must be approached in a very unique fashion. That faction consists of the following; you should show the technique twice at full speed, then show the technique at each of its key points both highlighting and/or using arrows to point out the individual step that's required in the sequence to perform the technique, then show the technique and slow-motion and finally twice more at full speed. This is how people learn and I always approached my materials as if I was on earth and my students were on Mars, we will never meet. This approach was also performed for United States Marine Corps martial arts training CD-ROMs.
Making a learning DVD requires many things but most importantly understanding how the material must be consumed by the student or viewer. The material can leave nothing to question such that you don't get complaints or lots of questions about a particular technique or material that you're attempting to teach someone. Frankly, it's a waste of money to man efforts to explain something in a DVD. It's similar to if you are a manufacturer of a machine or something real like that, you don't want those things coming back for repair. The repair department should be like the Maytag service man with nothing to do. If you have to have a forum or in e-mail effort to explain techniques are concepts on your learning DVD and then you have failed as a teacher. The bottom line is if you're going to produce a learning DVD, or an online learning series, then you must do it right and there should be no further questions about the material. That doesn't mean that you don't build a loyal business base or client base but you don't want a lot of questions. Learning DVDs should be just that! You see the emphasis in the "learning"? It's not a "questioning DVD"! Success is no accident.
