A self-paced workbook that teaches the higher-end, more advanced functionality of Adobe Captivate 2017! By following step-by-step instructions, you will improve your Captivate screen recording skills via project templates and by pre-editing your text captions. You'll learn how to record and edit video demos that allow you to capture screen actions in real-time.
After importing quiz questions into Captivate using the GIFT format, you'll learn how to create random quizzes using question pools and random question slides.
Is creating responsive eLearning a hot topic in your corporate training initiative? You'll learn how to create lessons that automatically reflow to fit just about any kind of display (including desktops, laptops, tablets, and smart phones).
You'll fine-tune your Captivate production skills by leveraging object styles, master slides, themes, and advanced actions. You'll engage your learners like never before by using variables, widgets, and learner interactions (including drag and drop). You will also learn how to create branching scenarios that allow learners to plot their own path through your content. Ensure your eLearning can be used by people with disabilities by adding such 508-compliant features as accessibility text, keyboard shortcuts, and closed captions. Enable Captivate's reporting features and, along the way, learn about Learning Management Systems, SCORM, SCORM Cloud, AICC, TinCan, SCOs, Manifests, and content packages.
