These can be extremely simple to produce using software such as Adobe Captivate, Camtasia and any number of low-cost alternatives. The best early examples came from Common Craft (check them out on YouTube), who used a technique called ‘papermation’ to present explanations of complex technical subjects.

Now, to arrive at a manageable number of alternatives, you have to sub-divide the market into categories: Rapid tools ( Articulate , Captivate , Atlantic Link ) as opposed to whatever the others are called ( Authorware , Lectora , etc.).

In this next profile, extracted from The New Learning Architect , we see another fine example of how a learning and development department has been able to break free from the confines of the face-to-face course to provide support for learning across multiple contexts. A good example would be Bupa’s course on time management using Outlook.

Can I think of an example of a 3D world that's not a sim? For example, you might use Excel to simulate some aspect of economics, or Captivate to simulate a software task. Second Life ? Any other ideas, anyone? According to the Wikipedia , ' a simulation is an imitation of some real thing, state of affairs, or process'.

Captivate simulations and role plays. What's also interesting is that both of these examples centre on soft skills, which is not the usual focus for synchronous e-learning. One-to-one coaching sessions. Interludes in which operators could take some real calls, but then come back to the virtual classroom to discuss their experience.
