interactivemedia_sm Interactive media integrates audio, video, still images, animation, text, and data to create content that is highly visual and easily distributed. With today's instructional emphasis on the learner and active learning, interactive media are readily appropriate for your classes. In the FIC, we not only have highly skilled Web developers, but we have an animator and a back-end data base expert. Our team can create a multitude of rich resources for your classes and research endeavors.





Indoor Environmental QualityIndoor Environmental Quality Website

The FIC was asked by Richard Corsi to build a public service website in order to educate the general public about indoor environmental quality as it refers to the nature of contamination, its sources, fate, impacts, and removal in buildings. The site features an interactive virtual tour of a house to illustrate threats from airborn contaminant.
