302 BYOD: Making eLearning Magic with Adobe Captivate

3:00 PM - 4:00 PM Wednesday, October 20

There is a standard set of interactions we all learn how to create in Adobe Captivate. Our learners are impressed the first few times they see these interactions. But what about when they're seeing these interactions for the tenth time? What can we do to improve our interaction options to keep learners engaged?

In this session, you'll learn how to take your Adobe Captivate advanced interactions from drab to fab. We'll start with learning how you can improve your click to reveal interactions to make them look like 3-D flip cards. You'll also learn how to create a content carousel that presents content to your learners using a cool animated effect. Next, you'll discover how to build an information wheel that works off a single click to progress through the information. Lastly, you'll find out how to build a knowledge check slide that doesn't use the in-built question slides that learners have seen a thousand times before. You'll leave this session with new tools to put in your eLearning toolbelt that will make your eLearning look like magic.

In this session, you will learn:

  • How to track your learner's progress through interactions using Adobe Captivate variables
  • How to write advanced actions that include a variety of actions that when combined create interactions that are truly engaging
  • How to use effects in your advanced actions that will make your eLearning appear like magic
  • How you can repurpose what you've learned in this session into your new eLearning projects in seconds instead of hours, and look like an eLearning superstar
