Captivate wins Best of eLearning!

,

OK, I did not stage this! When I made the post yesterday about the finalists, I had no idea that the awards were going to be announced the next day.

Adobe Captivate 3 has won the Best of eLearning! 2008 award for ‘Best Simulation Tool’. Also, Adobe’s Acrobat Connect Pro won the ‘Best Virtual Classroom’ award.

The combination should help streamline your eLearning course delivery. When the latest version of Connect Pro was released, we released a patch for Captivate (June 08) that ensures tight integration between the two products.

  • In a virtual classroom, presenters can allow participants to consume and interact with the Captivate course individually, and at their own pace. When required they can hit the sync button and bring all participants to the same page.
  • By default, Adobe Captivate projects are automatically published with a skin that contains an “Exit” button, which closes the window the content displays within. When loaded into a virtual classroom, this results in closing the classroom window. The exit button of a skin now deactivates smartly when loaded into Acrobat Connect Pro.
  • When publishing to Acrobat Connect Pro, Adobe Captivate saves you a few mouse-clicks and automatically turns on tracking for the Connect Training server.
  • Hotspot questions, a new question type introduced in Adobe Captivate 3, are now fully supported with Acrobat Connect Pro.
