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 […]

I posted some comments about the limitations of that solution. In this article the described solution is […]

By nature, eLearning requires online learners and tutors to be in separate locations. But with everyone so spread out, how do you make the eLearning development process run smoothly? eLearning courses allow instructors to reach online learners all over the world without moving an inch. It’s a convenient, cost-efficient way to disseminate knowledge. This remote model doesn’t begin in the virtual classroom, of course. Many eLearning developers collaborate across borders and time zones. In past years, this would have been […]

This past Tuesday a colleague and I were fortunate enough to attend the Adobe Learning Summit in Las Vegas, NV. I went in with high hopes and I wasn’t disappointed. The amount of information presented is almost overwhelming, there was simply so much to learn and so many practical tips. The presenters not only demonstrated mini-projects they had built for the conference but demonstrated HOW they accomplished what they had done. They paused to answer questions while they were […]
When I’m watching tutorials on YouTube, Udemy or somewhere else I often find myself asking the question “what tool did they use to do that?” For example, If I’m watching a Captivate tutorial and the presenter starts inserting images or custom buttons I want to know what they used to create them. Did they use Photoshop? Illustrator? Did they use Word (yes, really, Word)? Or, heaven forbid, Paint (not the snazzy new 3D version either). So, considering this, I decided […]
