New Guide Offers Tips for Creating E-Learning Courses for iPad

A new guide providing novice and experienced developers with tips for creating e-learning materials for the iPad is now available.

Lectora today released its new manual Creating Content for iPads - A Designer's Guide. The guide walks users through a set of questions to determine their needs then creates a personalized reference tool they can use to create the iPad materials. The manual also outlines the top 12 factors should consider when producing e-learning content for the iPad, including:

  • Page sizing,
  • Text styles and fonts,
  • Images,
  • Audio and video playback,
  • Flash and interactivity,
  • Navigation,
  • Evaluation/assessments,
  • Publishing.

"e-Learning content deployed through tablet devices continues to be a hot topic," said Peter Bray, chief marketing officer for Lectora, in a prepared statement. “This latest guide makes iPad development much more simple and seamless for Lectora users. Developers will get answers to all their questions about dimensions, file types and find tips to make creating successful iPad content easy.”
