eLearning Authoring Tools Comparison: Interactive Data & Rankings | Articulate Alternatives
eLearning Authoring Tools Comparison: Interactive Data & Rankings | Articulate Alternatives
Mike Stein (ID Atlas) completed an immensely valuable project to compare ID authoring tools by building the same course in multiple tools. Their site compares and ranks tools based on a rubric that includes development time, usability, responsiveness, and accessibility.

This is an extensive comparison of the Articulate Suite versus a new competitor, Parta. I haven't tried Parta myself, but it does seem like a tool worth reviewing, especially if you do a lot of development for mobile users. Accessibility is one big drawback with Parta, and I'm not sure it has enough power to do all of the branching and variables features I need. It's good to see what else is available though.

Great collection of open source e-learning projects and tools, including multimedia development, screen recording, Android app development, an LMS, and more. (Technically, some of these are Free, not Open Source, but still a valuable list.)

Chat Mapper
Chat Mapper
Tool for developing branching dialogue. It's designed for both video games and training. There are more features here than what I would need for most scenario-based training I develop, but for something complex this would be a great way to create and test a conversation. It also exports to a very clean screenplay for actors. The free version is only for personal use, but the Indie license is only $60 and would be worth it for a complex enough project. I can usually keep it all straight in my own head in Word, but I've had problems getting actors and developers to understand how the pieces fit together. The simulated dialog might be enough to help others see the flow.

Microsoft's entry into the e-learning world is a lightweight but free PowerPoint add-in. You can record presentations and do basic quizzing. They have their own reporting tool, but you can't use it in an LMS.

Online Quality Assurance Reviewer. Awkward name for a product, but it does similar functions to ReviewMyELearning. Reviewers can comment with each page of a course and IDs can collect feedback from everyone on the team. Unfortunately, they don't have a free trial, so there's no way to test it out and make sure it works for your courses without paying for it.

Storyboarding Branched Scenarios - ThinkingKap
Storyboarding Branched Scenarios - ThinkingKap
This is something I've struggled with--a good method for storyboarding branching scenarios. I've used several different Word and PowerPoint templates in the past, none of which have quite worked the way I wanted. I can write the branching in a linear document without much trouble (I once drafted one longhand in a notebook), but it makes my SMEs brains explode to try to follow them. I've seen recommendations for Twine in the past, and this explains in more detail how it works as a storyboarding tool.

This is an older tool and doesn't look like it's being maintained anymore (the last news update is from 2008), but it appears to be able to repackage SCORM packages. Might be worth testing if you have SCORM packages created in software you don't otherwise have access to.
