Briefly compare and contrast technology-based training and traditional training methods.

Technology-based training can be defined as "anything that uses technology to deliver lessons." Traditional training by contrast is "anything that does not involve the use of technology in delivering lessons." The focus of the chapter is on those technologies that are key to delivery, such as Internet, Intranet, electronic performance support systems, and video conferencing, as opposed to technologies that are often employed in the classroom, such as multimedia presentations. The use of technology-based training is steadily increasing in organizations; however, it is not fully replacing more traditional training methods as some had predicted it would.
