Abstract: An adaptive and interactive training system and method is provided. The system provides training content to a user of an application program based upon a variety of factors. The system selects the training content based upon the user's individualized needs vis-à-vis an application program. The system may customize the training sent to the user by evaluating the user's actual interaction with the application program, the user's personal profile and the group profile of groups to which the user belongs.

Abstract: A modular connector for modular data communication comprises a socket member located in a module. The module has a base for supporting the socket member. A connecting member for connecting thereto a connecting block is oriented on the base at an acute angle relative to the orientation of the base and socket member therein. In the preferred embodiment, a first face of the modular connector has a socket opening for plugging therein a modular plug. A second face of the modular connector, opposite the first face, has a row of posts with a longitudinal axis which is aligned substantially diagonally across the face. Such an arrangement permits two independent modular connectors to be placed side-by-side within a standard electrical box.
