The Interactive Television Institute is offering an on-going, comprehensive, introductory online course regarding Interactive Television. This class is written for those with little or no Interactive TV experience. If you want to know a lot more regarding Interactive Television, take this course. Student's work is individually graded by an instructor and after passing, students are offered a free online certificate of achievement. (Example.)

The course has roughly 600 questions that need to be researched, all of which are either multiple choice, true/false or yes/no. For each question a link to a Web page is provided where the answer can be found. A great many subjects also have demonstrations and/or enhanced descriptions.

The class has large separate sections for: The History of Enhanced and Interactive Television, Enhanced TV, Interactive Television, Interactive Program Guides & Electronic Program Guides, Walled Gardens, Timeshifting (Digital Video Recorders, a.k.a.

The lessons (called lesson modules) are sent to students via email. Using their computer, students answer all the questions and send the lesson modules back via email to the class instructor for grading.

The class instructor has written several books on Interactive Television and electronic commerce. (See Amazon's list of his books.)

How long it takes you to finish the course very much depends on how much you want to learn. That can't be emphasized enough. For the most part it's written for the education level of a high school senior. It's best if you spend 15 or more hours on it.
