Role of an eLearning content developer
eLearning content developers are trained individuals in how to represent their subject to the audiences. They do a meticulous research on the objectives, audiences and course expectations, and then go about building their content.
eLearning content developers have knowledge of the subject and various software in order to make the content interesting, appealing and easy to comprehend. They think creatively and digitize the content using various technologies and all the possible media to make the end product ready. The content undergoes modifications and is customized to the needs of the learners.

Course Overview
Authoring of e-Learning content with Adobe Captivate
Starting with captivate
Learn how to customize the workspace by arranging the elements in a way that suits your requirements. Learn to create movies and projects in Adobe Captivate using various elements, such as, panels, bars, and windows.
Creating a project
You can create an Adobe Captivate project by recording events in an application or screen area on your computer. You will learn the various ways of creating a project in this lesson.
Using objects and elements
In this lesson you will be learning how to import PowerPoint Presentations and Photoshop files. Learn how to include animations and interactive elements and also learn to use widgets and built in Actors.
Creating and using media files
There are a number of different things we can do with audio, like adding sound effects to slides, or to actual objects on a slide, even play sound in the background if we wanted to, and we’re going to look at those scenarios.
Creating assessment
In this lesson you will have a better understanding of the basics of eLearning assessment, set up our first quiz. We will explore partial and negative scoring, use different question types and work with a pretest.
Publishing your project
After you create a project, you publish your project so others can view it. Adobe Captivate contains many publishing options, and you can publish the project in many formats. You will also learn reporting to a Learning Management System (LMS).
Enhancing audio in e-Learning content with Adobe Audition
Audio Interfacing
Before you can use Audition, you need to configure your computer and audio system to work with the program. This lesson covers audio interfacing for Mac and Windows computers.
The Audition Environment
You can create custom workspaces with particular selections of windows and window arrangements, as well as choose various ways to navigate through Audition’s Waveform Editor and Multitrack Editor.
Basic Editing
Audition makes it easy to cut, paste, copy, trim, fade, and perform other processes on audio files. Learn how to zoom in to make extremely precise edits, while seeing a zoomed-out version in the overview window at the top.
Signal Processing
Learn to use the signal processors to “sweeten” the audio in multiple ways: fix tonal balance, alter dynamics and add ambience or special effects, and much more. Draw from the extensive collection of effects included in Audition, or use third-party plug-in processors.
Audio Restoration
Audition offers tools for reducing hiss, hum, clicks, pops and other types of noise. Learn to remove undesired artifacts by defining sections to be removed based on amplitude, time and frequency.
Mastering
Mastering is the stage between mixing and distribution. By tasteful application of EQ, dynamics, waveform editing, widening, and other techniques learn how to shape a piece of music into a refined audio experience that’s ready for distribution or posting online.
Sound Design
With Audition’s array of signal processors, learn to modify common, everyday sounds into something completely different like transforming a wall fan into a spaceship’s engine room or a running faucet into crickets at night.
Creating and Recording Files
Not only can you record audio into Audition’s Waveform Editor or Multitrack Editor, you can also extract audio from standard Red Book Compact Discs or drag files from the desktop directly into either Audition Editor.
Multitrack Editor Orientation
Learn how to use the Multitrack Editor to assemble clips, add effects, change levels and panning, and create buses for routing tracks to various effects.
The Multitrack Mixer View
Learn to use Mixer view which is optimized for mixing rather than editing the multitrack project’s tracks.
Editing Clips
Learn to apply a variety of operations to individual clips, including combining them with crossfading to create a perfect DJ-style continuous mix of music. Also learn to bounce the mix to a single file suitable for exporting, burning to CD, uploading to the web, and so on.
Creating Music with Sound Libraries
Using commercially available sound libraries and Audition’s Multitrack Editor, Learn to create music easily for commercials and audio for video, kiosks and other applications.
Recording in the Multitrack Editor
In addition to simply recording into a track in the Multitrack Editor, Learn to punch over mistakes and assemble multiple takes into an idealized and composite take.
Automation
Audition can remember parameter changes you make in a Multitrack Session and store those changes as part of the Session file. Whether those changes are performed in real time as control movements or created and edited in non-real time. Learn how these automation processes apply to individual clips or complete tracks.
Mixing
Creating a mix is an art and a science. Audition’s Mixer view combined with automation, long-throw faders, the ability to detach the mixer and “float” it on another monitor and various other crucial tools help create the mix. Learn to save it in a variety of file formats (including MP3 for uploading to the web), as well as burn an audio CD of the final stereo mix.
Scoring Audio to Video
Learn how Audition can load video preview files; when composing soundtracks or adding dialogue, the video window provides a crucially important reference.
Web Animation and Design with Flash CC
Working with Graphics
In this lesson you will learn how to use rectangles, ovals and lines to create interesting complex graphics and illustrations. Also, you will learn to edit their shapes and combine them with gradients, transparencies, text and filters for even greater possibilities.
Creating and Editing Symbols
Symbols are reusable assets that are stored in your Library panel. Learning how to work with symbols is an essential step to creating any animation or interactivity. The movie clip, graphic and button symbols are three types of symbols that you will be creating and using often for special effects, animation and interactivity.
Animating Symbols
Learn how to use Flash Professional to change almost any aspect of an object – position, color, transparency, size, rotation and more, over time. Motion tweening is the basic technique of creating animation with symbol instances.
Animating Shapes and Using Masks
In this lesson, learn how to easily morph (create organic changes in shape), with shape tweens. Masks provide a way to selectively show only parts of a layer. Together, they allow you to add more sophisticated effects to your animations.
Creating Interactive Navigation
As part of this lesson learning, let your viewers explore your project and become active participants. Button symbols and ActionScript work together to create engaging, user-driven, interactive experiences.
Working with Sound and Video
Sound and video add new dimensions to your projects. In this lesson learn how to import sound files and edit them directly in Flash, and use the Adobe Media Encoder to compress and convert video files to use in Flash, or to export Flash animations as videos.
Loading and Displaying External Content
In this lesson, learn how to use ActionScript to load external Flash content. By keeping Flash content modular, you’ll make your projects more manageable and easier to edit.
Using Variables and Controlling Visual Properties
Learn how to use ActionScript to control your graphics on the Stage while your movie is playing. Combine complex mouse interactions with variables to create interfaces that respond dynamically to your user for more immersive environments.
Publishing to HTML5
Learn how to use the Toolkit for CreateJS to publish your Flash art and animation assets to HTML5 and Javascript. The Toolkit for CreateJS enables a seamless and integrated workflow for both designers and developers.
Publishing Flash Documents
By the end of this course, learn how to test and publish your completed Flash project, in a variety of formats for playback on different devices and environments – nearly everywhere with Flash Professional.
