Transitioning e-learning software: Learning Curves
Melinda Livas and Erik Fausak
Description
E-learning software presents a unique opportunity for asynchronous engagement of students in the Canvas environment. E-learning software allows for blending videos, audio, and written instruction with dynamic assessment tools (drag and drop, hot spots, multiple choice) while creating automatic grades in Canvas. This year, the library switched e-learning software from Adobe Captivate to iSpring. This presentation compares the two e-learning software and their integration with Canvas.
