Challenge:

In 2015, MBUSA charged ATM with redesigning and rebuilding the in-store Digital Signage experience.

Challenge:

Create a forward-thinking, enhanced, interactive eBook based on Pearson's Technology in Action textbook.

Solution:

Designed to teach 21st century students, ATM worked with Pearson to adapt the Technology in Action 10th Edition textbook to a new, innovative digital format.

Challenge:

Develop a "choose your own adventure" style learning experience via a simulation platform.

Solution:

Pearson used ATM’s extensive simulation expertise for many sophisticated e-learning simulations across a variety of educational disciplines. Linear and branching simulations establish a scenario via text, audio, video, and visuals, guiding users to decision points. Branching simulations take the interaction even further, with the users’ decisions affecting scoring and changing the path of the story. This “choose your own adventure” approach adds an extra layer of immersion and allows students to see the impact of their choices.

Character animation created in Flash, motion graphics, live action, and visual effects were all utilized to create this immersive educational program.
