I like Captivate 3 because it does a great job of recording simulations and allows for annotations. Simulations will be very important for technology training. Have the simulation recording tools changed? There are advantages and disadvantages to that. I'm wondering where Lectora sees itself in 2 or 3 years.

I will be doing a lot of technology training courses so software simulations are very important. Captivate does a very good job of creating software simulations. Articulate and Lectora do not do simulations. Captivate The last content authoring tool I choose was Captivate.

There are a few things I'm particularly interested in: Adobe Captivate Widget 101 - I've already created my own widget to marshal communications between Captivate and Lectora so that I can save a learner's place inside a simulation.

I'm using this to track when the learner has completed the Captivate simulation. This way I can prevent the learner from advancing in the course until the simulation is complete. What I can do is monitor a click event in Captivate and set variables in Lectora and advance to the next Lectora page.

I'm bummed to say I have not been using it much because the focus of the content I've been creating is more on software simulations and not a lot of traditional quiz functionality. I really like Articulate Quizmaker '09 software.

Instead, I am requiring the learner to have simply completed a series of simulations and a non-binding assessment at the end. This is important to note because each LMS handles SCORM content slightly differently and some SCORM related settings must be adjusted appropriately.

The course will contain several simulations I am creating in Captivate 3. I'm putting together a self-paced web-based training course for how to order textbooks using a PeopleSoft application. I'm using Lectora to develop a SCORM package that will eventually be imported and used in the LMS.
