RapidLearning

RapidLearning is a tool for producing digital interactive training applications using animated 3D simulations. It combines existing CAD assets with training documentation to generate visually realistic, interactive learning.

RapidLearning guides trainers through the production process, prompting them to illustrate each step of the training scenario with a corresponding 3D animation and build a complete RapidLearning simulation. These can be used as standalone applications or integrated with existing SCORM-compliant Learning Management Systems.

Trainees can move between three different training modes: 

Demo   Observe step-by-step procedures in 3D training animation and interact with 3D models by rotating, zooming, and reading the corresponding textual documentation. Examine the object from any angle to understand how parts fit together. 

Study   Experience real machinery in an interactive environment. Trainees are prompted to complete simulated maintenance and repairs in a realistic 3D environment. 

Exam   Evaluate trainees with a series of skills tests: identify part configurations, select correct items, progress through step-by-step procedures without prompting. The performance of a trainee is captured and can be reviewed or transferred to an LMS.

Research has proven time and again that interactive 3D learning improves comprehension, retention, and on-the-job performance and costs less than product mockups, physical simulations, and other active learning approaches.

RapidLearning is a component of RapidAuthor. You can purchase RapidLearning as a standalone product.
