Navigation design, visual design, auditory design – these are all important! But I think my biggest frustrations as a learner have come from poorly designed quizzes. There’s nothing like encountering an overly difficult quiz question and then getting stuck there, so close to the end, and yet so far! So let’s chat today about quiz […]
Adobe Captivate’s Drag and Drop Wizard is intimidating! But I’ll walk you through creating a fun, color-coded drag and drop. I’ll also let you in on a secret: there are tons of backend settings to make your Drag and Drop super customized!
*Updated 9/28/21* The easiest way to share your courses with your reviewers and with learners is via web hosting. Being able to just hand over a link is simply the best, especially for your learner. Whether you’re using Captivate, Storyline, or some other software, the published files can be large and clunky to share with […]
Happy 4th! I made use of the time I saved by not going anywhere for the weekend (yay?) by creating a new video on Adobe Captivate. Learn how to force users to complete a tutorial’s modules before moving on to the quiz. This might not be the best way to accomplish this, but this is the simplest way. […]
I’ve written before about how Flash is pretty much dead, and HTML5 is where it’s at. But it’s a challenge in Adobe Captivate to figure out what features work in HTML5 and which don’t. Sure, Captivate has an HTML5 tracker, which is very helpful – unless you’ve already built out your entire project and come […]
I’ve written previously about how intrigued I was by the newest version of Adobe Captivate, which now supports 360 images and facilitates creation of interactive virtual reality learning experiences, if they’re a bit limited yet in functionality. I’ve also written about my goal of “Showing My Work” in creating a wilderness survival virtual reality game […]
By now, I hope you’ve heard of H5P, and that you’ve had time to give it a go. Its name belies how fantastic it is. H5P is an open source platform for developing interactive elearning. Haven’t tried it yet? Give it a go. I’ll wait. If you really want to dive in, I’ve got a […]
In today’s post, I’ll show you how you can embed your published Storyline and Captivate courses into any webpage using iframes, which is a very simple HTML code. If you can copy and paste, you can do this, I promise! You encounter iframes all the time without knowing it. Iframes are just “frames” that feature […]
So you’ve developed a fabulous course using Adobe Captivate or Articulate Storyline. Now, you want to show it off. Maybe you want to feature it in your elearning portfolio, or send it to your subject matter expert for review. It’s clunky, to say the least, to send over the zipped version of your published course. […]
I day-hiked Mt. Whitney the other day. Sure, it was pretty cool. Incredible alpine landscapes, sapphire blue lakes sparkling in the sun. Twenty-two miles round-trip, 6,000 feet of elevation gain, took me 16 hours. But really I was just there to get some 360 images to make some smashing virtual reality experiences using Captivate 2019.
