Hi-

I'm about to embark on creating a asynchronous learning module for training hospital staff on an new software application. I searched the project assets but none of the templates struck a cord with me. I'm going to be using a numerous MS Word Screen clippings.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks

Mark

You posted that same question on the eLearning community, and I gave an extensive answer hours ago. No reaction from your side however. Here is the link:

Captivate Template for Teaching a New Software Application - eLearning (adobe.com)

What have MS Word clippings to do with software training, complete enigma to me. 

Captivate offers the possibility to create software simulations in 3 modes: Demo, Training, Assessment. I would never use the Demo mode, but replace that by the Video Demo recording included also with Captivate. But both Training and Assessment allow you to create interactive training. A Video Demo can also be enhanced with limited interactivity to have an interactive instead of a passive video. 

After two decades of creating eLearning, can assure you that I have never used any MS Word clipping.

Thanks for the link.

FYI,,,,

My group of SME's has requested I use MS Word Clippings in the module; so
( I'm not sure about you) but when my clients insist on using a particular
tool, I comply with their wishes; especially after I offer alternative
solutions.

What do you mean by MS Word clippings? You could get in a lot of troubles in Captivate! 
I talk a lot with my clients, since I am the consultant, expert in Captivate and in eLearning. If they try to enforce tools or rules which are bumping on that, I simply say no to the job offer.
