Weekly Recap: Give Your E-Learning Course a Deep Clean
Time to come clean: Did you drop objects and text into your course, and forget to put them away? Is neglected content collecting dust in the corners of your slides?
It doesn’t matter how your projects got so messy. What matters now is that you clean things up. But where to begin—with the easy stuff, or the heavy lifting?

From scrubbing videos and arranging objects, to polishing scenarios and sharpening your favorite images, the Articulate community’s friendly clean-up crew can help your projects look neat and tidy in no time.
