Articulate Storyline
Summary of project
Captovate recently completed a comprehensive project aimed at enhancing the skills and knowledge of healthcare professionals in Northern Territory Health through a series of 35 modules. These modules were designed to educate nurses and doctors on efficiently entering patient data and prescribing medication using the newly implemented NT Health Electronic Medication Management Application, known as eMMa. The project's core focus was to utilise screen castings and provided instructions to create engaging, informative, and interactive eLearning content.
Outcomes and outputs
Captovate's eLearning modules for NT Health's eMMa implementation encompassed a range of educational materials and interactive components:
- Module Creation: The topics were broken down into various topics such as adminstrating medication, recording patient's height and weight and order medications through the Pharmacy. While the topics between the Doctor and Nurses modules were similar, they covered different details.
- Utilising Screen Castings: Screen castings formed the foundation of the training content. These recordings allowed learners to visualize the software's operation in real-world scenarios, enhancing their understanding of the application's functionality.
- Interactive Scenarios: Six modules incorporated interactive scenarios to reinforce learning. In these modules, learners actively replicated the processes they had been taught, using dynamic simulations. This hands-on approach facilitated a deeper comprehension of eMMa's operation.
- Step-by-Step Guidance: Throughout the interactive scenarios, learners were presented with specific clinical scenarios and were guided step-by-step through the process of entering patient data and prescribing medication. This mimicked real-world situations, preparing them for a seamless transition to the live environment.
- Visual Learning: The modules included visual aids, such as screenshots, to provide learners with clear, concise instructions and references during their training.
Visual examples:
While the screencasts appear to be simple recordings, our developers bring an extra layer of skill to the table. They meticulously synchronise voice instructions to the interactions on the screen, creating well timed highlights and pop out features to draw the users attention to the area within the screen.
Integrating high-quality voiceovers into your eLearning content is essential as it provides additional engagement, particularly for auditory learners, and ensures your outputs conform to accessibility guidelines. At Captovate, we use Microsoft Azure because it offers a powerful, secure, and efficient platform for accessing and utilising voiceovers. By leveraging Azure's advanced AI capabilities, you can create natural and expressive voiceovers that enhance your content's appeal. Why Choose Microsoft Azure for Voiceovers? Enhanced Security Microsoft Azure prioritises the security of your data. With robust encryption protocols, multi-factor authentication, and compliance with international security standards, Azure ensures that your voiceover projects and sensitive information are protected against unauthorised access and cyber threats. If you work for a government agency, this helps ensure you conform to your internal cybersecurity requirements (although it is important to check with them). Save Output Saving voiceover outputs using Microsoft Azure is straightforward and secure. After generating the voiceover using Azure's Text-to-Speech service, you can download the file directly to your computer in formats like MP3 or WAV. This makes it easier for you to edit content if something changes. Customise Pronunciations Customising pronunciations using phonetic codes in Microsoft Azure involves using the Speech Synthesis Markup Language (SSML) to define how specific words or phrases should be pronounced. By embedding phonetic codes within your text input, you can control the pronunciation precisely. For example, using the ` ` tag with the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) or custom phonetic alphabets within SSML, you can specify the desired pronunciation for each word, ensuring accuracy and clarity in the generated voiceover. This flexibility allows for tailored speech outputs that match regional accents, technical jargon, or specific name pronunciations. Insider knowledge: For some reason, voiceover software has issues with pronouncing words ending in "ies," such as "policies." This customisation allows us to control the output. We have created a lexicon for challenging words. Cutting-Edge AI Technology Azure's AI-powered text-to-speech capabilities deliver natural and expressive voiceovers, enabling you to create more immersive and engaging content. With a wide range of voices and languages, you can tailor your voiceovers to match your project's specific requirements. Cost-Effective Azure's pay-as-you-go pricing model ensures that you only pay for what you use, making it a cost-effective solution for businesses of all sizes.

Are you considering the development of eLearning modules? If so, one of the first questions on your mind is likely to be:
We recognise that they key to success is to ensure learning modules are ‘designed to be interactive and engaging’. As innovation gurus, Captovate has a number of innovative suggestions for increasing efficiency and effectiveness. While not delivered via the LMS, they do serve to create a ‘life long learning model’ - which sees learning go beyond the classroom and fit into various dimensions of a person's whole life.
