I remember a lot of multimedia learning materials in the late '80s and 1990s. Some were good, some weren't, but I don't feel they really improved my education much. The only ones that really stuck with me were more simulation-type ones, not as much these multimedia-text ones. I do recall learning a lot about oil drilling from an oil-drilling simulation game.
Encarta 95 was really great. Really set the tone for my decade later wikipedia browsing habit.

I thought it was already, for many subjects.
It is, but somehow schools still manage to make it not so.
That is a great point. It would almost be fun to learn in this type of way.
