What are the best books for learning Articulate?

I am starting a job in which I will be using Articulate.  I have only used Captivate, and I have never used Articulate.  Can you recommend some books that would help me learn this program.

Thanks

  • In addition to the forums and tutorials, you can take courses on Lynda.com.  You have to pay a fee, but I believe they have as short as a one month membership.

    This community is great - so you can always ask questions here and some hero will be happy to help! 

  • You know it's simply not helpful to be directed to a page with random articles.  As in instructional designer, I am trying to build a course.  I'm new to Articulate.  When I want to learn how to do something, I would love to be able to go to a directory, find the lesson, and then follow step by step instructions on how to do this.  The randomness of where these lessons are planted in this website is maddening for a new user. Unless I'm missing something...please show me where this directory lives. 

  • Hello Sharon,

    Here is some suggestion for you:

    Design for How People Learn (recently updated with 3 new chapters)

    ISD From the Ground Up: A No-Nonsense Approach to Instructional Design

    Understanding by Design

    E-Learning Fundamentals: A Practical Guide


    Michael Allen’s books. I recommend starting with one from his E-Learning Library series.
