Most eLearning videos are lecture-type presentations, which are often boring and fail to engage learners. Today’s learners expect (and deserve) more from their learning videos. Adobe Captivate has a number of great tools that can help you add interactivity to your eLearning projects.
In this hands-on session, you will have the opportunity to learn how to add interactive elements such as clickable text, image overlays, and multiple-choice questions to a video in Adobe Captivate. You will explore how to find opportunities to add interactions at key points to improve retention and recall. You will leave this session with a better understanding of interactive video and tips on how to build one yourself.

- How to add a video to the library and stage in Adobe Captivate
