University of Winnipeg's eManual Tutorials
These eManual tutorials were created using a program called ViewletBuilder from Qarbon. On the BI-listserv, Karen Hunt <k.hunt@uwinnipeg.ca> states: "You can download a free version [of ViewletBuilder], but if you're actually going to use it, you'll probably want to spring for a license to get rid of the advertising when you compile your viewlet. There's a bit of a learning curve, but after you've figured it out, it is pretty easy to make quick tutorials." The tutorials use screen shots with post-it note commentaries; you can add sound to the viewlets.
