My Month with Captivate

My month with Captivate began while working on e-learning content. My contract required that I use Captivate, and I had used it somewhat in the past. However, my goal was to become as proficient as I was with PowerPoint. I found that initially, it was a steep learning curve to use the advanced features. I also struggled with finding why Captivate was better than other tools. That was until I had to record and add video/audio to the slides. This situation is where Captivate outshines the rest. The adobe community was also beneficial in answering most of my questions. My only concern was the memory on my computer, but with Captivate, I felt like a full-fledge recording studio. I still prefer building on other tools and then bringing that design into Captivate when I’m ready to develop.

I’d love to get into the VR side of Captivate, I can see this becoming a more mainstream tool because of how it handles AR/VR

This is helpful.  I just started asking others about what program they prefer for video recording.  Thank you!

I´m new with the concept of eLearning. Since quarantine started I´ve been trying to improve my classes and I found that Captivate is a program to create useful activities. Do you think is worth to take some time to learn how Captivate works and use it in my classes or should I stay in my comfort zone with PowerPoint?

what did you do to get back into Captivate? I’m returning to using it after quite some time (several years) and I’d love to hear what you did to get comfortable with it.

What did you do to learn the new features and workflow for Captivate? I’m returning to using it after a rather long absence, and previously I only used if to create scenarios which I exported out to  use in my Lectora titles. I’ve decided this year to give up Lectora and get back to Captivate and wondering if the best way for me to get back into it is to deconstruct a project. Would love to know what you did in your month back.
