iSpring, a leading US-based eLearning software provider, announced the release of iSpring Suite 11.8. This is an update packed with highly anticipated features that deliver improved interactivity, smoother integration, and improved customization options for enterprise learning and education.
This new version introduces several new features. This includes a fully functional Moodle plugin, support for PowerPoint Morph transitions, and full customization in QuizMaker.
iSpring Suite is a complete creation tool. It allows users to easily create professional eLearning courses, whether for corporate training, education, or employee onboarding. With its intuitive interface and robust features, iSpring Suite allows users to create courses that meet any learning objective, without requiring any prior technical expertise. This latest update, Suite 11.8, offers a number of new features designed to improve the user experience, increase customization capabilities and ensure seamless integration into existing EdTech infrastructures.
Michael Keller, Chief Product Officer at iSpring Solutions, shared: “With this new release, we wanted to focus on simplifying the course creation process by adding advanced features our users requested. Whether you’re integrating existing learning tools, improving the visual quality of your courses, or perfecting assessments, Suite 11.8 has the tools to take your eLearning efforts to the next level. We want our customers to have a smooth transition to iSpring and enable them to create the most effective learning environments possible.”
Here’s a closer look at the key features of iSpring Suite 11.8:
Support for PowerPoint Morph transition
One of the coolest new features of iSpringSuite 11.8 has full support for PowerPoint Morph transitions. Morph is a popular PowerPoint animation feature that creates smooth, visually appealing transitions between slides. It allows users to animate objects on slides, creating the illusion of movement and providing a more dynamic presentation experience.
With the Suite 11.8 update, users can now seamlessly transfer Morph transitions from PowerPoint to iSpring courses, maintaining all animation effects, object placement, and custom transitions when publishing to SCORM format. This ensures that courses developed in PowerPoint will retain their polished and attractive appearance when transferred to the iSpring platform.
This integration means users no longer have to manually recreate animations when moving presentations into iSpring Suite. This saves time and effort while ensuring a professional finish. Plus, no special design or animation skills are required to make the most of Morph transitions within iSpring courses.
Improved interactivity with improved hover effects
To make eLearning content more interactive and engaging, iSpring Suite 11.8 introduces advanced hover capabilities for interactive elements. With this feature, users can enable objects in course materials, such as buttons, images, or text boxes, to visually respond when the student’s cursor hovers over them.
These visual cues help guide students through the content and push them to take action. This can be by clicking to reveal more information or by progressing through a course. This new feature is designed to make course materials more intuitive and engaging, keeping students’ attention and encouraging interaction. The improved hover effects also display more consistently, addressing previous issues where hover animations did not display correctly after the course was published.
New customization options in QuizMaker
Another major improvement in iSpring Suite 11.8 is the improved customization features within QuizMaker. The tool is used to create quizzes and assessments. QuizMaker now allows users to fully customize the look of their quizzes. They achieve this by editing individual slide elements, making it easier than ever to create custom assessments.
Whether you want to align quizzes with your company brand or design visually engaging tests, iSpring Suite 11.8 offers new customization options to achieve these goals. Users can choose from a variety of new themes and templates, making it easy to match quiz design to the tone and objectives of the course.
Even without professional design skills, users can now create highly polished quizzes that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing. This update is especially useful for organizations that want to maintain brand consistency across all training materials.
Dedicated plugin for integration with Moodle
Moodle is one of the most widely used learning management systems (LMS) worldwide, and many iSpring customers already rely on Moodle to deliver their courses. To simplify the process of integrating iSpring content into Moodle, Suite 11.8 introduces a dedicated plugin that simplifies the management of courses and quizzes between the two platforms.
Although Moodle previously supported SCORM formats, reporting and viewing quiz results was not always easy to use. With the new Moodle plugin, iSpring Suite users can now upload courses and quizzes directly to Moodle, track student progress in real time, and access detailed reports on quiz attempts. The plugin also allows for easy updating of course materials without resetting accumulated student data or quiz results.
This seamless integration makes it easier for users to deliver iSpring-based eLearning content within Moodle, improving the overall user experience for both instructors and students.
Further improvements
In addition to these great features, iSpring Suite 11.8 also includes a number of small improvements designed to make the course creation process smoother and more efficient. These include updates to iSpring’s content library, expanded resource libraries, and small UI changes that improve usability.
For example, new templates and design elements have been added to the content library, giving users even more options for creating visually engaging courses. iSpring Suite 11.8 also includes several bug fixes and performance improvements, ensuring a stable and reliable creating experience.
