What makes interactive media interesting?

Interactive Media Design combined with psychology and cognitive science can be used to device methods of easy learning for masses that have access to basic computing and mass media (TV, Radio and Print)
Media has three basic responsibilities: Information, Education and Entertainment. Entertainment is the flashy part that attracts. Info-tainment is already in working where information and entertainment combined. Next step should be to amalgamate the educational aspect with entertainment in such a way that the audience is educated on a sub-conscious level while they are being entertained.

Interactive Media opens wide range of possibilities for this. Learning methods can be developed that are individualized and intelligent enough to adjust to the need of the subject with respect to his/her responses/emotions/actions.

Education is the core issue in developing nations.
