Uniqueness of content

The KnowIT interactive eLearning content is unique and has three learning modes:

See	Practise	Test
This mode plays engaging video like multimedia simulations of the entire process / operation, so the learner can read the steps and also watch it being done.	The Guide mode allows the learners to practice the process step by step. If they make a mistake the software prompts them to try again, take a hint or does the step for them.	Learners can test their understanding of the topic. As they perform the steps, the system displays a tick mark for every right step or cross mark for every wrong step. At the end, the score is displayed.
