Introduction

Rapid e-learning either refers to simple content-based e-learning and its tools or to video-based e-learning or both. It also represents main-stream interactive e-learning made for industry training.

Typical rapid e-learning tools allow to create Scorm-compliant contents, create quizzes, create simple interactive presentations (power points, video recordings or slides with an audio track), capture and annotate user interactions with software.

“Rapid elearning can mean many things. For some it means easy tools that let you build elearning courses without special programming skills. For others, it means being empowered to quickly share your expertise with others. Ultimately, it’s usually about getting the right information to people at the right time while operating at the speed of business.” Articulate.com, retrieved 19:07, 22 October 2012 (CEST).
