Your first Instructional Design project
You are a new graduate student at IIT University, and you have decided to major in Technical Communication and Information Design (TCID). You signed up to take Instructional Design as an elective course. On the third day of class, your professor assigned you your first Instructional Design project. He is requiring you to use RoboHelp to create an Online Manual teaching fellow students how to use the software Flash. You are very knowledgeable about Flash, but are not familiar with how to use RoboHelp to build the Online Manual. At this point, you want a good grade. What do you do? The following modules give you explanations and step-by-step procedures on how to create an Online Manual. In creating an Online Manual, you learn the basic principles of how to use RoboHelp. The principles applied to create an Online Manual can be applied to create any other type of help system.
Note: Throughout this tutorial, you are encouraged to explore RoboHelp. The step-by-step procedures on how to create an Online Manual are merely to give you, who are unfamiliar with RoboHelp, a blueprint to work from.
