Lesson Builder
Design online lessons with text, PowerPoint, graphics, videos, quizzes, and more. Assign & deploy to your team in seconds.
Lesson Builder Overview
The iScout Lesson Builder makes it easy for you to create your own training for your team to complete online. The open-task list takes each employee directly to the training which can be completed on any modern web-browser or through the iScout iPhone and Android apps. Training completed online (using your lesson) will mark the training complete in iScout and will remove the task from their open-task list.
PowerPoint, Quizzes, Videos, & More
In iScout, you'll create a lesson one slide at a time - much like a PowerPoint presentation. There are several options of slide types including:
- Bullet-Points - add a heading and a list of bullet-points
- Documents - upload a PowerPoint or PDF for the employee to browse
- Images - upload a picture or graphic to be shown full-screen
- Text - type a headline and a paragraph of text
- Video - upload a video or link to a Vimeo or YouTube video
- Quiz - add multiple choice quiz questions
- SCORM - upload a SCORM file from a 3rd-party training provider
- AICC - upload an AICC file from a 3rd-party training provider
- 2020 Library - (add-on) import slides from a pre-built course catalog
Mobile Optimized
Over 75% of training is completed on mobile devices yet the vast majority of CBT/LMS providers barely work (or don't work at all) on mobile devices like iPhone or Android. Typically their content covers a small percentage of the screen and the font sizes and buttons could fit on a postage stamp.
iScout CBT lessons are designed with mobile phones as the top-priority. That means the content is large and easy to use, and the layout automatically adjusts to fill the entire screen - regardless of the phone orientation. iScout also makes it a priority to keep file sizes as small as possible given limited connectivity and data-plans out in the field. The iScout LMS also works perfectly on any modern web browser.
100+ Languages
Each employee can set their language preference within their own profile page or administrators can set it for them. If a non-english language is selected, then all website content (which includes training lessons) will be automatically translated from English to the selected language. This includes text, bullet points, quizzes, and even narration (a 2020 Training add-on).
As soon as you change a lesson or add a new slide, the translation will be immediately available for all team members in your system.
Required Score
By default, quizzes will re-ask any incorrect answers at the end of the quiz. For example, if an employee misses questions 2 and 5, then after the quiz is finished the system will shuffle the questions and answers and re-ask questions 2 & 5. This means that your team is allowed to learn during the quiz, but no training is complete until the employee has gotten every answer correct.
Alternatively, you can choose a required "passing score" for your lessons. For example, if you choose "70%" then each employee will be asked the questions exactly one time. A 70% or above will allow them to complete the lesson, whereas a score below 70% would require them to completely restart the training.
Training Analytics
With the 2020 Training add-on, you can view analytics on CBT training sessions. Analytics include duration per lesson, per slide, and scoring information on quiz questions. Learn More: 2020 Training
Pre-Built Course Catalog
The 2020 Training add-on also offers a pre-built course catalog that you can easily drop in and assign to your team. Easily change the content to fit your team's policies, add slides like SOPs, or create additional quiz questions. Learn More: 2020 Training
Narration
With the 2020 Training add-on, you can also add text-to-speech (or pre-recorded) narration to each slide. Employees who prefer a different language will automatically hear the narration in the language selected for their profile. Learn More: 2020 Training
