Many instructional designers ( Christy Tucker , Wendy Wickham ) build their own courses using tools like Captivate. I primarily focus on the content, the writing, and the schmoozing with the client. Do you think instructional designers should be able to use the tools? In my opinion, knowledge of tools is certainly a value add.
