captivate vs. camtasia - 10/7/2006

I was able to get special permission this week to download the software onto my IBM school computer to create this math site. The school is viewing the downloading as material that will assist me in instruction. It was the prospect of not being able to use one of these programs that made me change my project to begin with, but I still feel better about the math site then an on-line class organizer.

I have evaluated both programs and have decided on captivate 2. I have an HTML class and a Producing Distance Education Resources class that is focusing a lot on DreamWeaver. Captivate is going to allow me to switch between other macromedia products with more ease.

This next week I will start designing the instruction, it will be interesting to find an effective way to present the material.
