Learning NewsLearning Pool

Adapt Learning, the highly popular authoring language pioneered by the UK e-learning industry is set to benefit from an ambitious initiative led by Learning Pool. From April this year, Adapt Learning will be available online and completely free for users who want to create highly interactive e-learning that works across multiple devices.

 

Developed as a collaborative, Open Source project, Adapt Learning has already created quite a stir in the market. Led by a group of like-minded e-learning technology companies including Learning Pool, it gives content creators the freedom to engage their audiences and embed knowledge using web development best practice.

Learning Pool's Head of Content, Lindsey Coode, explains more "We originally made the authoring tool available only to Learning Pool customers and the market went crazy for it. Adapt is different to other e-learning content – it scrolls vertically not horizontally so it is more attune with the web. By making a hosted version of Adapt free, we're delighted that everyone will be able to create gorgeous, deep scrolling and interactive content that runs across multiple devices with ease."

Learning Pool’s Adapt Learning authoring tool (Adapt Builder) makes e-learning development easy for even non-technical learning professionals. With the online version of the tool from Learning Pool, freely available at www.adaptbuilder.io from April this year, users will be able to build, edit and customise responsive content that’s been built on the award winning Adapt Learning framework easily, and for free.

Learning Pool’s CEO, Paul McElvaney said, “When we set out on the Adapt Learning adventure we had a vision to change the e-learning industry by delivering a free, easy to use development tool for responsive e-learning. We are now supporting almost 2,000 users to do just that and our customers are also benefiting from the largest catalogue of Adapt content available. We’re excited to see the market response to this latest initiative and I'm proud that Learning Pool is taking the lead to make mass adoption of this great new technology a reality.”

Meet the driving force behind the development of this project at Learning Technologies on stand C21. Learning Pool are also running two Adapt Learning seminars at Learning Technologies, Theatre 4, on Wednesday 3 Feb at 13:15 & Thursday 4 February at 15:30.

Registration and free access to Adapt is avialable at www.adaptbuilder.io.
