Estimating timings on a course
I estimate with Word count. Typically narrated text is 125 - 150 words per minute.
Reading speed is around 200.
That's super cool! Do you have a link?
I don't want to market anything here but here is a video of the tool. See if you find it useful. It has a number of features, one of which is creating a table of contents with timings. I have used it for a lot. Pretty handy tool and he keeps updating it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OAxAvh1r2g4
Thx for the link. I don't know this particular program, but I am using another program from the same programmer, and that one works very well for me, and his support is really good. He is a user of Articulate programs himself, who got into programming to add functionality he was missing.
I work in a bigger company, so I have to get all new software vetted before installation, and in that process he was also very helpful. (and no, it's not me 😉)
Estimating the duration of courses is also an issue for us.
Yes, definitely! He has some other great programs that support/supplement Articulate products, and he is constantly updating them. I have them all as well. I chat with him often. We actually meet once a week in VR. (We had a VR YouTube channel but haven't done much with it lately.)
