Elearning tool with a twist – fully online- fully responsive – DominKnow

As you know, elearning development can be a costly, laborious activity prone to delays and scope creep.

You start with a template and halfway through the project the boss says, nah , don’t like the template or layout anymore – change it …….

Ever try to do this in Storyline? 

Now just imagine if you can simply login online and start developing 

This week we have a paid on-line authoring and publishing solution to place in the spotlight. 

It’s calleDominKnow, and the platform provides a web-based All-in-one authoring and publishing for small teams and large organizations.

Animating SVG Files With an easy to use web platform – SVGator

Animating SVG Files With an easy to use web platform – SVGator

Source (Wikipedia.com)

This week we are looking at SVGATOR  a platform that allows for creating Animated SVG files. This type of file is entirely scalable (because they are vectors), small and 100% code-based. This equates to a  steep learning curve for complete beginners.

This is where SVGator steps up to the mark as the creators have developed a platform making it easy for anyone to make SVG animations using a familiar interface. The platform is  web-based.  All you need to do is sign up, then   import, animate and export your SVG animations, all without touching any code !

 The website provides detailed tutorials to get you started.

Free Presentation Tools for your next Docebo Course

Free Presentation Tools for your next Docebo Course

As many of you know when working with me in designing eLearning resources for use in Docebo there are two tools that I love using :
  1. iSpring Presenter and;
  2. TechSmith Camtasia Studio in combination with Snagit.
This week’s topic looks at a few of the other presentation tools I use as I am always looking for quicker and easier ways of creating eLearning resources. Click on the button below to check out the elearning resource. This was created using Microsoft PowerPoint and Ispring Suite.
Saola Animate – An easy to use tool to create HTML5 Animation and Interactive web content

Saola Animate – An easy to use tool to create HTML5 Animation and Interactive web content

We have just purchased a lifetime licence to this neat authoring tool.

It’s called Saola Animator, a desktop software application that has a lifetime subscription option ( as opposed to the annual subscription of $US39) so the $ US99 dollar one-off purchase  is a worthwhile investment.

What I really like about this tool is it’s no-nonsense ease of use.It also comes with a built in Code Editor so you have the power of JavaScript at your fingertips to create more sophisticated animations.

Although it has a comprehensive help tutorial I would have liked to see  more online tutorial videos. The videos available cover the basics and are well suited to get you up and running. The audio is a bit difficult to understand, which is a pity.

HERE IS A QUICK DEMO TO GET YOU STARTED.

Here is a link to the ATOMI Website.

Let me know if you would like us to develop something more specific for your Docebo use. API development options are available as well.

Next week we will be looking at another product from ATOMI called Active Presenter 6 another tool  for rapid eLearning authoring  we use extensively.  A new version (7)  is due for release soon.

Happy  eLearning Designing ! !
