Is PowerPoint the most widely used tool for eLearning development? Most of the new authoring tools either use PPT as their backbone or offer the ability to import slides. I “grew-up&# in eLearning world using Director/Authorware and then moving into Flash/HTML (PPT was “off-limits&# ). Should it be?

Instead they just build everything from inside their authoring tool. Because more than one person worked on the course, the storyboard was really critical to communicate on the project design. Thus, we used the storyboard to walk through the course design with out clients. Why There’s No Need for a Storyboard.

How many of you out there today are looking to hire an instructional designer? How many of you who have been offered this amazing opportunity use a rapid course authoring tool? How many of you, have experience in instructional design but only from the ILT or paper-based perspective? Winging is bad. Skill Sets.

Articulate Storyline 2. Design as a whole – Again, acceptable, but where was the oomph? Yeah, they added new features and new capabilities, but they also took a product that even “Articulate folks” I talked with told me that Studio users using Storyline would have a learning curve.

To be a successful elearning designer means you have to know something about multimedia, graphic design, instructional psychology, and perhaps a little about Web and Flash technologies.

I came into rapid e-learning from the world of Authorware and Flash where building courses took a lot of time and cost a lot more money. But I saw the light in the early 2000s when I started using Articulate Presenter. Today, most authoring solutions fall into the rapid e-learning bucket. I still hear this quite a bit.

Here at DevLearn 2011 in Las Vegas I've got authoring tools on my mind. Because I have been able to take a look at two new tools today, which I'm sure are going to have a major impact. First up is Storyline from Articulate. But for me the PowerPoint add-in approach to authoring is an uncomfortable compromise.

Instructional design was actually being used. The majority of people creating the courses used authoring tools, such as Authorware (difficult to learn, but robust), Dazzler Max (I used it, learning curve though), Lectora (difficult to learn) and many others that existed then. Because of the way the courses were designed.

Someone did the instructional design, someone else worked on graphics, and then we had a programmer who built the courses in Authorware or some other application.

What about Adobe products vs. Articulate vs. Qarbon ? Until eLearning vendors bite the bullet, come to real standards on formats, and then the tools and structure can build up to support those standards, eLearning is never going to be what it can be. However, it all settled down to roughly Toolbook, Authorware and IconAuthor.
