Articulate excel when it comes to product support. In the early days of Articulate Presenter the tool was fairly basic and there were a number of competitors with similar feature sets so the guys at Articulate realised early on that if they were to stand out in the marketplace then they needed to help customers use it effectively. This support extended way beyond simply using the tool (the button pressing) and really helped those new to e-learning explore how great e-learning gets made. Today Tom Kuhlmann, Jeanette Brooks and David Anderson are stars in their own right because they have helped elevate Articulate and Storyline 2, to be the authoring tool of choice. When it comes to learning as content marketing Articulate are practitioners par excellence.
And now they have launched a great new e-book: ‘5 Highly Effective Strategies for Creating Engaging E-Learning‘ a great guide for those just getting started with developing e-learning or for those who already have some experience under their belt.
It’s broken down into five key sections (obviously) along the following lines:

How to add Meaningful Interactions
A really useful overview of what constitutes a proper learning interaction
How to let Learners Pull Content
