Develop unlimited possibilities of new activity types thanks to a flexible solution

With yAuthor you can create many different types of interactive activities. However, if you find, that the activities already available are not enough for you – you can use the ‘Add-ons’ option, to create your own external activity modules, which can be embedded within your content.

Enrich interactive lessons with the most popular media files: animations, pictures, audio files etc.

yAuthor offers not just the possibility of embedding interactive activities. You can use ‘presentation modules’ as well. It is possible to place animations, videos, pictures and audio files inside your lessons.

Conform to accessibility requirements

yAuthor follows accessibility guidelines. Content created with that tool offers self-adaptive scaling technology, allowing content to fit any resolution and, hence, satisfying every demanding customer. What is more, it is possible to add a so-called ‘teacher panel’ where the user can increase and decrease font size. Font size will change and the screen will adapt to the new font size automatically!

Extend your materials with interactive-whiteboard toolbar ready to be used in the classroom

yAuthor offers the possibility of using additional graphical designs with the ‘teacher panel’ – a set of additional tools (font resizing, markers, pencils, drawing, etc) that can be used during whiteboard lessons.
