New Configurable Stock Buttons

Disable tablet or phone views to simplify Responsive Course Design

HTML5-only publish option
|
When this option is selected, HTML5-only publishes exclude any Flash fallback elements so there are no issues importing into your LMS. |
New for Drag and Drop Questions – limit Drag Items per Drop Zone |
Choose how many items can be dragged into a particular drop zone. Learners will be warned when they exceed the limit. |
Scale to Fit
|
For traditional titles published to desktop, easily scale content to fill the browser as long as either of the two existing publish scaling options are checked |
Enhanced audio event syncing
|
View the waveform for audio files when synchronizing events to make the process easier and more precise. |
Accessibility Improvements
|
Lectora and Lectora Online include support for creating accessible content that meets 508 and WCAG 2.0 AA specifications. This includes visible focus indicators, language declaration for the title and text, reading order control, closed caption ability for audio and video, scope attribute for table headers, and more. |
Publish for Seamless Play |
When the Publish for Seamless Play option is selected, your title will smoothly flow from page to page, eliminating the screen wipe commonly associated with loading HTML pages. Additionally, media files will honour the Auto-Start selection on mobile devices, allowing simplified use of page narration and videos. |
Import and Export Question Files
|
Use comma-separated value (CSV) files to import and export nine question types, as stand-alone questions or contained within a test or survey. In addition to specifying the correct answer, you can assign a point value, include feedback text, and define options such as randomization of choices and case-sensitivity. These files are useful for SMEs or other parties to create questions and tests to import into Lectora. It’s also a handy way to export and store your test information in a text format for use as an answer key during development, and for review by auditors and stakeholders. |

Lectora is available in the following languages:
Yes. Lectora supports the creation of forms and surveys. Lectora’s surveys are similar to tests and can include question types such as multiple choice, true false, Likert and ordinal. Survey results can be sent to a Learning Management System, a custom database or even a Google Drive spreadsheet. Similarly, forms using controls such as entry fields, drop-down lists, check boxes and radio buttons can be created for collecting user information. Form data can be sent to a specified Google Drive spreadsheet or can be submitted to a custom script for processing.
You can include graded tests within your Lectora titles. Tests can include question types such as multiple choice, true false, matching, fill in the blank, hot spot, and drag-and-drop. If you are publishing your title to a Learning Management System (LMS), test results are sent automatically to the LMS. Otherwise, you can configure your test results to be stored in a custom database or sent to a Google Drive spreadsheet.
Titles you create with Lectora can be published to the Web, Tin Can or to an AICC- or SCORM-conformant learning management system (SCORM 2004, 1.2 and earlier are supported), to a CD or to a single, executable file (.exe). Titles that include tests and questions that are published to a Learning Management System (LMS) will automatically send test results to the LMS.
Lectora’s Web-based publishing options produce HTML pages that can be viewed through a smartphone or tablet browser such as Safari. Host your published content on a Website or a Learning Management System, and access the content through the smartphone or tablet’s browser as you would any other Website.
Lectora supports nearly all types of digital image, audio and video formats, flash animations (.swf) and rich text and text documents (.rtf, .txt). These types of files can be dragged and dropped directly from your computer’s files into the Lectora workspace. Reference the Tec Specs page to see the full list of supported media types.
Projects that you create with Lectora are referred to as titles. Your title is a file with an AWT extension. Titles are stored in your \My Documents\My Titles folder by default. Each title is comprised of the AWT file along with any images or additional media that have been added to it. When you drag and drop media into your title, Lectora copies the media file from its original location into an appropriate folder, for example images, which is stored in the same location as the AWT file.
No. Lectora is not an HTML editor. Lectora is a WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) application that enables you to drag-and-drop items into your title, reposition and resize them using your mouse, add and format textual content, and create interactivity using the Lectora interface. No programming is required. If you publish your content to a Web-based format, Lectora will create the appropriate HTML code that can be interpreted by Web browsers such as Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla® FireFox®, and Apple Safari®.

Lectora includes a number of iPhone templates that can be used to create content specifically designed for the size and functionality of an iPhone. Content created for the iPhone must be published to the Web and accessible from a Web address through the iPhone’s Safari browser.
Lectora’s action object enables you to create actions that can be triggered by buttons, hyperlinks, form objects, mouse-overs, keystrokes or simply when a page appears. You can use actions to create small games, flash cards, trivia game shows and more. You can use actions to trigger things like the movement of an object on a page, the submitting of a form or test, and navigating within the title. You do not need any programming knowledge.
Yes. The text block object in Lectora can be used to type text directly into your title or copy and paste text into your title from an existing document. Text attributes such as font style, size, colour and more can be configured directly within your title, similarly to how you use a typical word processing application. You can spell check your title and export the text for reviewers, subject-matter experts and translators.
