PCWeek Shoot Out
• Several teams invited to compete
• Convert a 54-hour instructor-led course to online learning
• 2 days of development
• 1 person at the computer at any time
• Storyboard…. actually a lesson plan
• Present course to 20 judges and 150 members of media gallery
• Watched the other teams in action
• Wide variety of approaches

Tips and Suggestion – Using Interactivity for Rapid Development
• Create an interactivity “sampler” to show to internal customers, SME’s, etc. Review before design activities.
• Don’t create navigation controls at the page level. It’s a waste of time.
• Page turning isn’t bad if used in moderation. Add a healthy mix of interactivity.
• When prototyping, create a prototype for each interaction, not just a single lesson or module.
• Consider using multiple tools to meet the need.
• One caution: make sure interactivity choices don’t overshadow the instruction. It is possible to use too much of a good thing.
Tools used in Class:
• Raptivity (200+ templated interactions) – See www.raptivity.com
• Instructional Spice (much fewer templates, but web based) – See www.instructionalspice.com
• Quandary (used for the desert island maze) See www.halfbakedsoftware.com
• Hot Potatoes (used to create the crossword puzzle) – See www.halfbakedsoftware.com
• Classtools.net (shooting game) – See www.classtools.net
• Unison (demonstration of integrating interactivity samples) – See www.rapidintake.com
• OnPoint Digital (LCMS demonstration of integrating samples) – See www.onpointlearning.com
