Success!

I believe that I have all of the finishing touches on the first research tutorial! I basically had it finished a day or so ago and had both my husband and son (age 9) go through it to make sure that it made sense, that there were no glaring errors, and that the quiz at the end was appropriate (9-year-old passed it with 80% so I'm feeling pretty good about that!) I made some final tweaks to it today, including attempting to enable the quiz reporting. I currently have results set to be emailed to me but I'm not sure if that feature works until the published tutorial is actually "live" online. Or how quickly those emails are sent.

I have published the tutorial and viewed it, completing the quiz myself, and am waiting to see if I get the promised quiz results. It's not "live" online, though. The publishing is just a step that is taken to create all the necessary files to put online.

I have emailed Paul to see what is needed on his end in order to put this up for live testing on the library web page. We need to create a general tutorials page (I gave him the link I needed that one to be at), which will be linked from the library home page and the completion page of all of the research tutorials. So now I shall await word from him to see what he needs me to give him.

This also coincides with my completing all of the lessons in the Essentials of Adobe Captivate book. This book was invaluable in figuring things out and I'm sure I'll continue to refer to it time and again to refresh myself on how to do things. I'm going to look at my other Captivate book to see if it gives me any insight in having those quiz results emailed, as well.

I can't believe how wonderful it feels to have completed this first module! Hopefully, the others won't be disappointed!
