Human Resources: dominKnow LCMS 5.0's New Authoring Tool and Course Edit Menu

PERTH, ON, 31 Oct., 2006 - Based on extensive customer feedback,
dominKnow LCMS 5.0 from dominKnow Inc. now offers a built-in
authoring tool and several other features aimed at erasing complexity
from e-learning courseware development. The software is available
immediately from www.dominKnow.com as a hosted service, priced at $20
per seat for a typical sale to a Global 3000 company with 2500 users.

"This release will really help organizations create online training
faster and more effectively than ever before," said dominKnow's CEO
Bill Beacham.

A new integrated authoring tool leads the list of new features in
dominKnow LCMS 5.0. "The authoring tool is designed to benefit both
training departments new to e-learning as well as seasoned online
learning development teams." Beacham said. "With the new tool, e-
learning novices with two days of dominKnow training will be able to
develop courses in a day or less, making dominKnow LCMS the prevalent
interface for all courseware development as well as deployment."

For experienced courseware developers, dominKnow LCMS 5.0 offers a
wide range of advanced deployment features including:

* Easy creation of template libraries that can be re-used across an
organization's courseware projects
* Support for all varieties of multimedia, from audio to video to
Flash animations, which help increase learner engagement and create
effective learning experiences
* Centralized asset repositories for images, audio, video and more
that allow easy re-use of courseware components and also simplify
updates to these files
* Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) support to assist in visual
standardization of an organization's courseware as well as simplify
format revisions
* Built-in spell checking to ensure content accuracy
* Export options including .PDF, Flash paper and HTML to allow online
courseware resources to be used in instructor-led and blended-
learning training approaches

dominKnow LCMS 5.0 also offers a completely revamped Course Edit
menu. The new menu gives developers greater control over course
structure and deployments than ever before, allowing most course
structure changes to be made from this single menu - including adding
content to Learning Objects, adding test questions, previewing files
and more. The new menu gives developers the flexibility to work the
way they want to, with task options available on a traditional top-
menu as well as available by right-clicking the mouse.

dominKnow LCMS 5.0's test question engine has also advanced. New
options increase the flexibility of the LCMS's randomization feature,
allowing instructional designers to focus testing effectively. As
well, new test question input wizards expand the range of available
test question options, and make it easier to add these questions to a
course.
