iSpring implementation support
Human Science is
an iSpring certified reseller.
Would you like to make effective use of your "assets"
with iSpring?
Do you have any PowerPoint files created for in-house training?
Materials that you have spent time and effort creating are a valuable asset that should not be left unused.
By using iSpring Suite/iSpring Suite Max, you can leverage your existing assets (such as learning materials) to create rich content with animated visuals and narration.
The file formats you can generate are HTML5 or mp4.
iSpring, an animation production tool used worldwide
iSpring is an animation production tool provided by the US IT vendor "iSpring," which has been developing tools to assist in e-learning production for 20 years. Currently, 59,000 companies in 172 countries are using iSpring applications to create educational materials.
iSpring allows you to convert your familiar PowerPoint directly into digital learning. Furthermore, it is an excellent tool that can generate quizzes, interactions, and synthesized speech.
How to use iSpring
1. Add features to your familiar PowerPoint
When you install iSpring Suite, a tab will be added to the PowerPoint ribbon.
Slides and animations are created using familiar PowerPoint features.
iSpring Suite also offers a wealth of materials such as slide templates, illustrations of furniture and equipment, and icons.
There are a variety of photo materials featuring poses, expressions, and angles for all ages, as well as customizable character illustrations. These can be used for navigation and simulations in educational materials.
In the "Notes" section, you can input the narration text. If you want to emphasize or make objects appear in sync with the narration, you should also set up animations.
Once you have completed the slides, you will use the features of iSpring Suite / iSpring Suite Max to set up aspects that are difficult to handle with PowerPoint alone, such as creating narration audio (Text to Speech), synchronizing with the animations and timings you have set, and incorporating quizzes.
It is also possible to create role-play style content by branching the slides midway.
Once all tasks are completed, you can choose to export in HTML5 format, mp4 format, or whether SCORM compatibility is needed, and then it's done!
*SCORM: A standard for e-learning, designed for integration with common LMS (Learning Management Systems) (reference article)
With iSpring Suite Max, you can create narration audio that matches animations and create character illustrations, allowing you to complete all tasks using PowerPoint + iSpring Suite Max.
2. SCORM-compliant content can also be created simply by selecting commands
With iSpring Suite, you can create SCORM-compliant content simply by selecting menu options, without any special knowledge or skills.
Additionally, it is possible to export in video format as well as HTML5 format.
