This has also left our judges in a tizzy in scoring easily, due to the sheer professional quality of projects that all have created through the Adobe Captivate authoring […]
Big Sur (macOS 11) update for Adobe Captivate (2019 release) is here!
Greetings all. I am always looking for resources and things to learn from. I have read some articles recommending books and unfortunately some that seem really interesting I haven’t been able to find, but I will continue to look. Thought I would pose the question here. What are some good resources that you recommend? They don’t have to specifically be direct to eLearning or Instructional Design, but they obviously can. But if there is something that relates and you feel […]

Intro This article is written as an answer to a question on the forums: Drag&Drop with Advanced Action For quiz slides it is possible to show different Failure messages based on the attempt number. That functionality is not available for Drag&Drop slides. As you can read in the thread, another user posted a solution using the Object actions which are executed after each drag action. I posted some comments about the limitations of that solution. In this article the described solution is […]

While L&D Teams often opt for “off the shelf” online courses to meet a specific corporate training need, many a times the required impact can be elusive. How can this challenge be offset? The answer lies in opting for custom mobile learning solutions for corporate training that precisely address the training need and therefore deliver the required impact. In this blog, I share the basics of custom mobile learning solutions and how they differ from the off-the-shelf or catalog mobile learning solutions. […]
In my last post on concatenating, we looked at how to change states based on two variables. This time, I wanted to expand on the technique a little bit to show another usage and application to fuel your own creative thinking. In this example, the scenario is that we have a new employee joining the team and they need to access all of their training materials within the locked briefcase – they just need to open it. Now – you […]

Hi all, I thought it was time I shared some of my work. I created this to replace a paper based assessment, this would speed up any marking that had to be done. I picked an iphone 6 screen size to create this and tested it using a responsive web design tester found in the Chrome store. (see below) The assessment was straight forward in development terms. Resizing of buttons for a mobile screen was my main concern (always got […]
Hi all, I’ve been working on my software capture skills and realized there’s a better way to set yourself up when you come to publish. Scenario: You want to create a demo and training simulation. Conventional Captivate workflow will have you create two separate files. But, when I put my Instructional Design hat on, it means more clicking for the learner to open and close the two files i.e. click of death. My solution: create only a training sim, then […]
