1. A method for creating a business simulation utilizing a rule-based expert system with a spreadsheet object component that includes data and calculations required for the simulation and communication of information to provide a dynamic, goal based educational learning experience, comprising the steps of: (a) accessing the information in the spreadsheet object component of the rule-based expert system to determine presentation information indicative of a goal; (b) utilizing the information in the spreadsheet object component of the rule-based expert system to integrate goal-based learning information in a structured, dynamic business simulation designed by a profiling component to motivate accomplishment of the goal; (c) querying a student for answers to one or more questions based on one or more learning objectives of the business simulation using a simulated human conversation; (d) monitoring answers to questions posed to evaluate progress toward the goal utilizing the spreadsheet object component of the rule-based expert system and providing dynamic, goal-based, remediation learning information feedback from a remediation object component including a knowledge system and a software tutor comprising an artificial intelligence engine which generates individualized coaching messages that further motivates accomplishment of the goal; (e) analyzing the answers from the student utilizing system tools to compare the answers with a standard for achieving the goal.
3. A method for creating a business simulation utilizing a rule-based expert system with a spreadsheet object component as recited in claim 1, including the step of synchronizing the media information with other information in the business simulation utilizing time and the indexing.
