Lectora 101 Benjamin Pitman

This book is for people who are new to Lectora and want to learn quickly how to develop (not design) e-learning (computer based training) courses using Lectora 11. It gives you tips and "best practices" on what works well and what does not as well as many ways to speed up your development. Most importantly, it gives you over 30 warnings to alert you to potential pitfalls, saving you lots of time and frustration. It uses the 80/20 rule - it covers what you use 80% of the time. The other 20% is in Lectora Help or my other books Lectora 201 and Lectora 301 now available on Amazon. It is not an application "bible" or handbook. It is not a rehash of the user guide. We could just go through the functions of all the menus and buttons, what they do, and how they work. How exciting would that be? Trivantis provides an excellent Help in the application and a 400+ page Help PDF. Why repeat that? Instead, this book takes you through ten easy steps to build a course from the ground up. When you finish this book, you should be able to use Lectora 11 well enough to develop a basic online training (e-learning) course. If you want to learn to use Lectora to develop good courses, then get this book; if you just want to know about it, don't waste your money.
