Organizations have a wide variety of learning needs they must address daily. Often available off-the-shelf materials simply do not address these needs, and organizations can't always afford custom development services every time they need new learning materials. That's why Isoph provides affordable authoring tools that allow you to create your own on-demand online presentations, briefings, tutorials, courses, and orientations. And your choice of authoring tool isn't limited to those listed here; the Isoph Blue learning management system is standards-compliant, so you can use other e-learning authoring tools.

Isoph Instructor: Online Collaborative Authoring

Isoph Instructor is Isoph Blue's built-in, online lesson authoring environment. Instructor offers intuitive tools for authoring lesson content and implementing user-friendly layout and navigation. Since Isoph Instructor is an online authoring environment, multiple contributors can collaborate to create learning content objects and courses.

Isoph Instructor provides tools for developing lesson templates, authoring learning content objects, importing existing learning assets (like Flash movies or video clips), and creating AICC-compliant lessons. Additionally, Isoph Instructor automatically generates the AICC coding necessary for tracking progress in the Isoph Blue learning management system. Lessons created using Instructor are published to the Isoph Blue for incorporation into online courses.

Using the Isoph Blue assessment engine, you can build quizzes in a what-you-see-is-what-you-get environment--no need to know HTML and JavaScript. Assessments can serve as pre- or post-tests in Isoph Instructor lessons. In addition, courses developed in Isoph Instructor can easily be integrated into Isoph idea spaces, offering a variety of learning community features to complement a self-paced experience.
