software for creating interactive e-learning and HTML5-based mobile learning content, CBR reports.

Using the Captivate 6 software, e-learning developers, corporate trainers, educators and other business users will be able to deliver dynamic, SCORM- and AICC-compliant course content.

Dexigner quotes Naresh Gupta, senior VP, Print and Publishing at Adobe, as saying: "Today, learners expect engaging e-learning options on their iOS and Android devices - static presentations shrunk to fit mobile screens aren't enough. Captivate 6 gives subject matter experts and content creators the ability to deliver e-learning content to mobile devices that is as robust and interactive as the content delivered to desktops."

According to Hexus, top features includeHTML5 publishing with pause and resume capabilities, HD screencast, attractive out-of-the-box assets, enhanced PowerPoint round-tripping and enhanced quizzing.

With Captivate 6, trainers and educators can individualise e-learning modules by recording voiceovers and other sounds that automatically play back when a learner clicks on a specified object. Course designers can also ensure that e-learning content maintains a consistent look and feel using customisable, professionally designed themes. Improved LMS integration helps e-learning developers effortlessly publish content to leading learning management systems, including Moodle, Blackboard, Plateau, Saba and SumTotal.
