“Computer-based training services are where a student learns by executing special training programmes on a computer relating to their occupation.”
“Web-based training is a type of training similar to CBT, but it is delivered over the Internet using a web browser.”

4. Computer Based Training
Computer assisted learning is the future, and that future is now.
Computer assisted learning (CAL), as the name implies, is the use of electronic devices like computers or mobiles to provide educational instruction and to learn.
Computer assisted learning can be used in virtually all fields of education, ranging from TV/DVD play-learn program for kindergarten kids for teaching.
CAL is developed by combining knowledge from all fields of education/learning, human computer interaction (HCI) and cognition.

6. Goal of CAL & WBT
The basic goal of CAL is to stimulate and develop the learning capacity of students, increase the productivity of teachers with the help of computer based technology.
Computer technology should therefore be an integrated part of the education system.
Another objective of CAL is to develop easily understandable and attractive tutorials and demonstrations of the field they are employed in.

8. CAL Visualization Tools
Visualization is an important aspect of CAL.
3D objects can easily be created and refined using 2D plots. Traditional tools for visual demonstration such as photographs, sketches, maps, and renderings are now grossly inadequate for teaching a subject/course that requires attention to detail.
The new visualization tools include 3D computer models, video demonstration, animations, coloured computer maps etc.
The most popular software tool for developing visual programs is JAVA. With JAVA, one can easily write and build software that can run on different platforms without much modification. JAVA can be combined with HTML and VRML to create portable and interactive web-based applications.

9. Advantages of CAL
CAL provides many advantages to the education sector. These include –
Self-Paced/ Self-Directed Learning
Improved Computer Skill
Visualization
Learning Efficiency
Sensory Stimulation
Communication Development
Content/Lesson-Centred
Enthusiasm

10. Impediments of CAL
No interaction with other users
Becomes obsolete quickly
Security risk
Requires stable internet access in WBT
Distraction from the web
Not in all areas available
Few update possibilities
