Web Training Formats

[smurphy430]

Hey, I am developing some web training currently i have converted it from PowerPoint to HTML. However, I am seen some really nice stuff on the web that kinda resembles PowerPoint but it is in a reduced window, (not full screan), does anyone know what was used to create the training. I am thinking maybe PowerPoint may not be the best way to go.

Thanks In Advance Steve

It might be better if you provided a link to an example, so we can see along the lines you are thinking. My guess without seeing an example, would be that its Flash you are seeing.

Surely .ppt wld not be good for web trg. You may want to consider Viewlet builder, or maybe even Anark Studio to work on your Wen training. You can author really stunning 3D training with this new media. If you need more info, do contact me.

Designing interactive online tutorials

Okay, so why all the emphasis?

This is one of the best sites I have ever seen with articles and tutorials concerning specific elements of designing and writing for the web. Just start surfing, you'll see.


ALSO: smurphy430, if you use dreamweaverMX, I just got an extentionsion, free of course ;o), that is called "Coursebuilder". It looks like it may take a bit of learning, but so what, everything does!
Here is the description:

Quickly create compelling Web-based instructional content that works across
multiple platforms and browsers with this powerful extension. The CourseBuilder
extension includes:
+ A gallery of over 40 pre-built interactions to let you easily create multiple-choice,
drag-and-drop and fill-in-the-blank type questions;
+ A visual Action Manager that lets you add complex logic and interactivity without
having to know JavaScript;
+ The ability to send results to an AICC-compliant Learning Management System
(CMI) such as Lotus LearningSpace.

This extension is accessible via the Learning category of the Insert panel, the
Insert > CourseBuilder Interaction menu, and the Modify > CourseBuilder menu.
The Help files are accessible via the Help > Welcome to CourseBuilder and
Help > Using CourseBuilder menus.

It is on the macromedia site somewhere! lol
