There were dozens of trainings done and gave real-world examples on how to apply this in industry. Good way to certify users.Įric Mongrain, a Web Training Facilitator at AmeriGas, showed examples of finished trainings developed in Captivate. Simulations are a great way to assess people’s ability to do something.TIP: There is a problem with Flash 9 animations being incorporated into Breeze (no detail or workarounds given).Specific frames and audio can be edited after they are recorded.The tool is smart enough to capture events like pop-up windows.Because the end users rarely have all that space available with toolbars, menus and the like Captiva offers smarter resolution choices to make sure your demonstration will fit in the end user’s desktop. TIP: 800×600 is currently most common computer resolution.TIP: Create templates with branding and standards that can be applied to all future simulations.It can be difficult to get good narration while performing the demonstration. TIP: When recording demos in Captivate record the screen capture first and then go back and record the audio.Solutions created with Captivate can be integrated into any AICC or SCORM compliant LMS.Supports quizzes and track user responses.It also works well inside Adobe Presenter (formerly Macromedia Breeze). Can be integrated into a lot of software programs.Options in Captivate 2 are very much like the options for Captivate 1. Produces a Flash SWF file which makes the learning highly accessible since nearly 98% of computers out there have browsers that have Flash installed on them.It is easy to use, and you don’t have to be a programmer to use it. The learner has the ability to go down different paths that may or may not be the right ones and figure out to do when they get there – just like the real world. Think of it like the choose-your-own-adventure books or choose your own ending movies. One of the coolest features of Captivate is the ability to create branched story learning experiences. Simulations and demonstrations mimic the actual product/software and gives the learner a safe environment to learn and it provides feedback in real time. Keep your eyes out for a series of tips from Dave in the future.Ĭaptivate allows you to do simulations, demonstrations and branching stories. These notes are less about the specific instructions on how to do so and more on the key features/benefits of the tool. Here’s a summary of each….ĭave Moser, a Certified Captivate Instructor at Brookwood Media Arts, delivered the first presentation on how do create simulations and demonstrations in Captivate 2. 2/15/07 – Captivate vs. Camtasia FebruPosted by Ben Craigo in e-Learning Tools, e-SIG Presentations, Intructional Design, Lessons Learned.Īt the meeting on February 15 we had three excellent speakers that delivered three great presentations covering Adobe’s Captivate and TechSmith’s Camtasia.
