ADOBE DIRECTOR


Advances Multimedia Authoring Environment.
Adobe Systems Inc. today announced Adobe Director 11 software, a major upgrade to the company’s powerful multimedia authoring tool for building interactive applications and rich content.
The latest release contains a flexible and easy-to-use authoring environment enabling multimedia authors, animators and developers to create powerful interactive applications, games, e-learning and simulation products.
With Adobe Director 11 or a combination of Director 11 and the Adobe Shockwave Player, users can author once and publish content for the Web, CD's/DVD's and the desktop simultaneously.

This robust environment complements Adobe’s ecosystem of creative products, enabling users to add Adobe Flash SWF files to Director projects, play them in Director and Shockwave, and easily edit them with Adobe Flash CS3 Professional.
In addition, Director 11 supports a wide variety of third-party add-ons creating the most extensible authoring environment possible.

Director 11 also enables content creators to localize applications through Unicode, create new levels of lifelike motion in games and simulations with the Ageia PhysX physics engine, and deliver more engaging experiences with enhanced text and native 3D rendering.
Providing the broadest support for industry standard audio, video and image files, Director 11 also boasts powerful new features, including support for Adobe Flash 9 technology and bitmap filters to simplify adding characte-ristics, such as shadowing or glow, to text or images.

The product offers language support with both JavaScript and Lingo — the native scripting language of Director — for programming in more than one language, as well as an enhanced script browser to save programming time by breaking out the code and code snippets with drag and drop capability.

This book focuses exclusively on the application of PowerPoint to the creation of online training programs.
Better than Bullet Points, Creating Engaging e-Learning with PowerPoint fills that gap.
By providing in-depth guidance, specific instructions, and helpful exercises, the book will enable training practitioners to create impactful learning interactions in PowerPoint.
The author steps readers through the powerful features of this popular desktop application, covering everything from text to art, animation to interactivity.
Provided that the reader owns a copy of PowerPoint, this book will immediately put free real-world tools into the hands of those who need it.

The information is practical rather than theoretical and immediately applicable.
Most importantly, this book will help make e-learning accessible to those who have previously been excluded from taking advantage of the opportunities e-learning can provide.

About This Book
 
Why is this topic important?
It is estimated that more than half of all e-learning is being created with PowerPoint.
Those using PowerPoint as an authoring tool—from front-line trainers to instructional designers need help making their PowerPoint-based e-learning programs more engaging and more effective while maximizing use of simple approaches, tricks, and tools.

What can the reader achieve with this book?
Jane Bozarth, e-learning coordinator for the state of North Carolina and author of e-Learning Solutions on a Shoestring:
Help for the Chronically Underfunded Trainer, brings you solid ideas for transforming bullet-based content into engaging, interactive online learning programs.
From fi nding compelling approaches for programs, to creating interactive games, to utilizing add-on quiz and tracking tools, this book will help the reader take simple PowerPoint-based e-learning to a level on par with programs created with long-learning-curve higher-end products, custom art, and
approaches dependent on programming expertise.
The book focuses more on basics of effective, engaging design than on technical specifi cations; where appropriate, however, instructions and tutorials are provided.

How is this book organized?
Readers will take a chronological tour through the process of creating good e-learning with PowerPoint, from developing objectives and creating a storyboard to developing a user-friendly interface, choosing and developing meaningful art and animation, adding interactivity, narration, and multimedia, and uploading programs for use by learners.

Who is this book for?
This book is meant for anyone using PowerPoint to create online learning programs, from front-line trainers to instructional designers, and even those who may be familiar with other programming-based approaches.
It’s also meant for those already using PowerPoint or PowerPoint-based authoring products (such as Articulate or Adobe Presenter) who want to move from storing content to building more interesting, engaging programs.
This book is especially meant for those who not only want to create e-learning with PowerPoint but to create good e-learning with PowerPoint.
