So, which tools were new to you? which tools did I miss? What is indispensable to you? What questions do you have about this video?
I use getmarked digitaliser quiz importer to create quizzes! It allows me to convert my questions from word to any other learning platform like canvas or blackboard or adobe captivate. Really really useful when you have a lot of questions to create.

Fantastic to hear, hope you enjoy - would love to know which one is your new favourite for project management 😊
This was helpful. I use Adobe Captivate and iSpring. I am also a video editor, and I am considering Articulate. After a while, one gets overwhelmed with software programs.
This was so helpful!! Thank you!

You're very welcome Amy, thanks for letting me know :)
Thank you for the information!! You mentioned using GSuite and the Google alternatives to MS Office. I'm new(ish) to Instructional Design so forgive the lack of awareness on my behalf, but do you not need Microsoft Powerpoint or do you do without PowerPoint and strictly use the Google alternative? I was making a general assumption that I'd need Powerpoint because if I made something in the Google alternative or Keynote that my stakeholders would have issues with incompatibility. So I'm guessing you've not yet encountered that and maybe it's not a concern..?
Hi please give me suggestions how can I switch from teaching to ID.... what r the things to start with.....

I'd say that it is like starting any other profession - yes, having a teaching background will give you some experience that ID uses - but a lot is very different. So I'd first look at instructional design positions and see what skills you already possess (on linkedin or indeed) and then select the position you'd like to get in the next 6 months (and begin building up your skills and experience to match the requirements) - you'll have to decide corporate vs academic, job vs freelance etc.... don't worry about the tools in the beginning, get good at analysis and finding the right problems to solve - that's a great skill to have in any profession. :)
