How Do I Create My First Course

Convert this Course!

So in this first section, we'll look at the most basic and common tasks new users are asked to do: convert existing PowerPoint files to e-learning courses.

We created a simple "How to Change Your Tire" course and we'll use that as we go through the process.  In this first stage, we're starting with a typical type of PowerPoint file.  It's kind of like the one you probably get at your organization.

What we'll do is convert the basic file into something that is more consistent and in-line with what you'd expect in a simple elearning course.  After that, we'll go to the second stage and teach you how to create the right look and feel.

So let's get started with the basics.

Working with a real-world PowerPoint presentation, you'll learn to:

• Publish a PowerPoint file using Articulate Presenter
• Customize the published course
• Add and remove animations
• Record narration
• Synch animations to narration
• Create a basic quiz using Quizmaker
• Customize the course player

What's Next?

In the next lesson, we'll convert a basic presentation from an existing PowerPoint file and publish it using Presenter '09.
