PowerPoint is not E-Learning and shouldn’t be used as your course tool/development – For whatever reason, there are people who have been around online learning for years, who still see PPT as a means for the creation of content – i.e. courses.

Someone came up with the idea to create templates for developing courses quickly – and no, it wasn’t someone from Adobe or Articulate. In my grouping, I interspersed it with historical references that are not tied to our industry for the purpose of just doing it. At the time, I hated it.

After getting a bachelor’s in communication and an MBA, I joined Andersen Consulting (now Accenture), learned Authorware (an early e-learning authoring tool) and how to write training guides … then was never staffed on a project where that was my role. And that’s when my work in custom course development really got its start.

CBT Prior to online learning known then as WBT, and then the latter term of e-learning (vendors today, use it to refer to content that is online), there was CBT. WBT (Web-Based Training).

Hypercard and Authorware both launched in 1987, making it easy to create multi-media programs. This drove the creation of the sharable content object reference model, which gained traction in the following decade. Authoring tools developed new delivery “packages,” which allowed developers to publish their courses on the internet.

However, it all settled down to roughly Toolbook, Authorware and IconAuthor. But, I actually think things in the world of traditional online courseware development have become much easier. In the world of J2EE app development, there are incredible standards being worked on all the time. I used to love these tools.

The world of authoring tools started at the advanced level, Authorware, Toolbook and to an extent DazzlerMax. You either needed a tech skill set (at least moderate) or authoring tool design/development experience and preferably both. I know plenty of people who work in custom development at places who use these products.

So back then, we refererred to short content as short, or bytes of learning or nuggets. E-Learning developer skills not needed. For the authorware supporters this was akin to blasting the planet with gamma rays. I’d argue, that it is a stretch to refer to that as learning. When it was noted as a buzz word, silence.

Anyone who used Authorware can attest to that. The common wording used in objectives are – Learn, Develop, Identify, Examine, Acquire.

As a developer, the single biggest flaw I have experienced with any testing and reporting methods is the disconnect between the tested project and the feedback given by the testers. When a project is ready for testing the developer can publish the project as a review app. Adobe Captivate 4 addresses this in a wonderful way.
