Udutu Online Course Authoring

online courses

Opmerkingen: I use it for multi tasking,and preparation for starting,and finishing my books I write.I plan on using it to create online courses on art,writing,and motivational speaking.

Pluspunten:

I like it because it allows me to create my own courses,and since I am a writer,and artist I can use it for multi tasking

Minpunten:

It does take patience to do anything,but it takes a while to get the job completely done

A lot of functinality for the price

Opmerkingen: I came to Udutu with ZERO experience in creating an online course. I'm a retired English teacher and I just wanted a platform to offer some writing instruction for the students I tutor (in other words, I'm a very small fish in a very small pool). At first Uduto was not very intuitive to me, and I felt like the learning curve was steep, but I figure it out enough (within only about 2 weeks) how to make it do what I needed - therefore the simple, free version of the Online Course Authoring tool met my needs and helped me take my project from dream to reality. Yay Udutu.

Excellent tool for 90% of our development needs

Opmerkingen: it provided me with the avenue to implemented e-learning for my organization

Pluspunten:

The integration with the LMS is an added bonus feature. It provides and often times exceeds the development needs for most programming.

Minpunten:

Since I do focus on the administrator role of the software it is difficult to crtique functionality. It performs well.

Anomaly + Remark

Opmerkingen: Hello, In the lms.udutu.com with a learner access, I notice something that doesn't work.
This concerns only the french interface. Go to « My training » tab, then choose an activity that has been already done. Therefore, clic on « Restart Activity ».
At this time, you have to write « REPRENDRE ». But it doesn't work because instead of « REPRENDRE » we have to write this word in english « RETAKE » whereas this is the french version. Moreover, I tried to find in the lms a « preview » to see what the learner will see for all the process (lms + elearning) but I didn't find it.
If actually it doesn't exist, I think it could be a good feature. Best regards,
David BENOIST

Brilliant Learning Object Creator and Scenario builder (using it for our Medical university)

Opmerkingen: It was a brilliant discovery to find UDUTU when I was asked to review possible E-learning Learning object creators and scenario builders for my University E-learning team. UDUTU does everything we need and more. It is even better than very expensive bought software like Captivate and Articulate. You can create your own theme, and then use the useful templates to build your interactive learning objects or even adaptive learning scenarios. Sky is the limit!. For the person who has basic IT skills but want to make complex learning objects or even take the next step up from a PowerPoint this does everything. Quickly add PowerPoints, quizzes, multimedia. Work on them as a group and when you have finished you can export to the VLE as scorm compliant packages. You can even upload previously authored scorms and re-edit them. Not many packages do this. The are so many cool features. This sets the bar high. I wish I had learned about it earlier
