To increase student attendance they invested large sums in CGI --computer generarted images, to enahance starshows, adding Hubble Space telescope images of distant galaxies and adding narrators of large acting skill.
So, too, dry Business and Economics textbooks are unappealing against these extravaganzas. To sovle this, the creators of Star Conference decided to use docudrama to illustrate points for creative problem solving and for using it in the classroom.
