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 […]

As an experienced e-Learning developer, I’ve had a number of folks ask me over the year how I keep my work organized.

To begin, I maintain my course on the C: drive […]

Intro Reusability in Captivate is one of this tool’s most amazing features, but a lot of the possibilities (often time-saving) are not very well known by (starting) users. When I mention the word ‘external library’ in a presentation I see a lot of confused eyes among the participants. Even recently, based on an answer on the forums, someone sent me a message: ‘What are you talking about, never heard about external libraries in Captivate, where can I find them?’. Time […]

I’m so excited about the new Adobe Captivate because it helps me create learning experiences to support screen based learning. I’m working with software developers that roll out updates a couple times a month.
