Silver Keys
References
to quotations or other useful external material are accessed from pop-up
windows when a rotating silver key icon appears in the bottom right hand
of the text screen. These optional pop-up windows of useful and thought-provoking
references and quotations are strategically placed to illustrate key points
or provide useful indications for further learning on the subject they accompany.

Gold Keys
In most
modules case studies are included as continuous text in pop-up windows,
and are accessed by clicking on a rotating gold key icon at the bottom right
hand of the screen. This device separates them from the main text to allow
simpler review of learning material. As pop-up insights into the subject,
made of real consultancy case studies, gold keys target complex or problematic
areas in order to show how these difficulties have been practically resolved.
Full versions of these case studies can also be found in the module workbooks. |
