The RCAT (rapid content authoring tool) market continues to be healthy with nothing to slow it down – uh, except maybe one thing (more on that later). A scan across the market is clearly showing that this has become a required feature in an authoring tool. What does it all mean? Early Signs for 2012. Still has a way to go.

In the early days of e-learning course creation, you could either use your in-house instructional designer(s), self-teach yourself Authorware, DazzlerMax, and similar tools – or have your in-house ID person do it for you, outsource development to a 3rd party aka custom development for your proprietary course. John Baker, CEO of D2L.

(In case you didn’t know, Michael was chief architect of Authorware, the precursor to Macromedia and granddaddy of digital authoring systems.). I expect Zebra to own the market when it becomes available. I’ll let Michael tell you what he’s got: Tags: The Learning Business. I’m impressed.

Q : I am curious on why Cornerstone On Demand, Saba and SumTotal do not appear in your top twenty lists even though they appear on other sites as the best products in the market. WebEx has been around forever which doesn’t hurt from a marketing or biz standpoint. There are a lot of issues in the current state of the LMS market.

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. I don’t know many people who still build custom-programmed courseware outside of a few specialty markets or emerging technologies like augmented and virtual reality.

As I write this, my Adobe Updater program is busy installing the latest updates to my Adobe Creative Suite 3. Financial stability implies that the vendor is going to be around long enough so you can continue to maintain your data long into the future (not that it always works out that way, with Adobe discontinuing development on Authorware!).

When the personal tools in your mobile phone are more empowering than what your company provides or approves for your projects, how can you be saved from devastating market forces? Business’s lingering love of bureaucracy, process, and legacy technology has fallen completely out of sync with what people need to do their best.

Through the 70s it was being marketed as a tool for retraining unemployed workers in new fields. While PLATO and The Oregon Trail had planted the seed of computer based training, these new personal computers were the start of the digital revolution that would soon impact homes, schools, and businesses around the world.

Nobody, if they want to stay in business. In today’s market there is no reason to buy a product that requires you to do a full customization, either on the front end, back end or entire system, unless – you decided to go with an open source solution such as Moodle or Drupal, where you need that extensive customization.

As the evolution of e-learning continues, the rapid content authoring tools (RCAT) market follows suit. This is a growing market with new vendors showing up, but at the same time, others disappearing. The RCAT market, regardless if it is fee based or not, has come down to a single key question: What is a WBT course?

My current business card says Im a "Manager of Instructional Design". After a few years, I got involved in an IT initiative (then it was called MIS) -- designing a new software application to support our call center business. I learned Toolbook and Authorware on my own while in the program. And yet here I am.

You upload your courses into OpenSesame and now they are on the market. It’s a business marketplace for buyers and sellers. Reminds me of the days of Authorware, but with less complexity and anger, plus with more features and usefulness for the developer. The e-learning market is on an upswing. Two tab options.

The first edition of Easygenerator was a CD-ROM tool based on Authorware. In 2005 Easygenerator was acquired by ISM, a large Dutch e-business company. A new product, a new marketing approach and strategy, a new sales strategy (and team), a new everything. The headquarter and marketing and sales are located in The Netherlands.

Sometimes this was a bad thing – I would miss some good info because I was busy re-crafting a message. prior to Mass Media, companies advertised through things like Sears Catalogue. • “the more people you can subvert with your” underhand marketing the more money you can make. • Murdoch needs a new business model.
