With e-learning, you digitally transfer knowledge and skills to your employees or clients. This is usually done through e-learning modules that consist, for example, of videos, quizzes and interactive exercises. To create an e-learning module, there are several types of authoring tools on the market. These can be divided into the more generic tools, with which you can develop complete modules, and the more specialized tools, aimed at a specific didactic working format.
Generic tools
These tools allow you to build both microlearning modules and extensive interactive e-learning modules. They are tools that support a wide range of working formats, making them the foundation for any e-learning developer. Articulate Rise, Storyline 360 and Lectora are examples of generic authoring tools. The tools differ among themselves in capabilities and ease of use.
Specialized tools
Authoring tool focused on VR training
Use these tools to make practice come to life and practice real-world situations and procedures. Use 360-degree photos and videos, create a realistic scenario and make it interactive with the software so that practice is simulated in the best possible way.
Video (animation) authoring tool
Video is increasingly used as a learning tool because it allows you to get your message across efficiently and appealingly. Modern tools make the development of professional videos and animations increasingly easy and, with the advent of AI, it is even child’s play.
