'by Lori Smith. We recently introduced you to Captivate's Pretest feature. In this article, I'm going to follow-up with Pretests and teach you how to control a Pretest Advanced Action. Here's the scenario: your client or boss wants to ensure that all the learners know the material by passing a quiz. The boss doesn't care if the learner spends the time watching the individual slides that make up the lesson, only that learners are given a fair opportunity to pass the quiz.

'Brent Schlenker recently resurfaced after disappearing into a corporate learning job. One of his reflections is that there existing ‘people unwilling to learn’ Jane Hart picked up on his post, and in her reply teased apart two separate things: Whether learners were willing to learn, and whether they were capable of learning. I was inspired to think about addressing those two dimensions.

'The biggest promise we make to our customers is that we will continue to build-out the LearnDash offering based on user feedback and industry best-practices. One best-practice to emerge in recent years is the concept of gamification (points, badges, awards for completing certain tasks). Quite honestly, gamification is not just a “bonus” feature when it comes to elearning, it’s an expectation.

'See here in the picture Kiekeboe our new hamster (or do you say chipmunk as in Alvin and the chipmunks?). Our Kiekeboe escaped and my search in the house was in vain. I decided to Google and found some good tips: (1) search in the evening/ at night because in daytime he is hiding and asleep. (2) put food in different rooms and watch where the food is gone - that''s the room where he is hiding.

'Unfortunately, Lectora doesn’t have animations when fading in and out objects. The default transitions are not my favorite and might not appeal to everyone. I found a way to make custom Lectora animations or transitions to display a smooth and visually explosive effect. KABOOM!!! I was searching online for a solution to better fade in an object on my course.

'Many leadership development programs fail because they fall into two common traps. Here’s how CLOs can avoid them. According to a 2011 study by consulting firm McKinsey & Co., 76 percent of chief executives say it is important to grow their leaders.

'I love sharing the things I do and use to save time in e-learning production. One year ago, I wrote a blog post about Articulate Storyline Development Timesavers. In this post, I’m going to share some more. Use Publish for QA (Instead of Preview). When I’m ready to view a course to make edits, I’ve found that the Preview function only goes so far. Previewing inside Storyline allows me to see the course very similar to the published output, but to make edits, I have to close the preview.
