Adobe Captivate version 4 is the latest version of the Captivate Program. Captivate can create demonstrations, trainings, assessments or a custom combination of them.
Other programs are Wink, Camtasia or Jing.
Here are some uses:
Embedding Demonstrations- Create simple software demonstrations for users to view, and embed them in your page.
Embedding Trainings - As a training simulation, you can walk people through a process on a site or in a piece of software, then allow them to repeat those steps by clicking and even typing into the simlation without actually leaving the site or having their own version of the software installed. This can be an invaluable tool in your Moodle toolbox because users will be able to repeat processes and review steps right inside your page.
Assessments -After showing the simulation or demonstration, you can create an assessment for your users which can contain, multiple choice, short answer, or T/F questions and then package it in a SCORM zip file and integrate it with your Moodle page. For Captivate 4, this is where the documentation seems to be lacking, and I would like to see more info added. A module that includes an embedded captivate file and a use of the SCORM content is located here: [1] with a demo page here: [2]
