Tutorials
Tutorial software can be viewed as an electronic instructor that
delivers information and teaches step by step instruction either
through online web based instruction or through software for
a specific content or academic area. The great advantage of
tutorials is that the learner can view a specific task over and
over when remediation is needed.
