Key benefits of using mAuthor

The design concept of mAuthor is based on Modular Architecture. It provides highly interactive electronic content that can be built from parameterized blocks without any knowledge of software programming. Thanks to this approach users of different specialties may take an active role in the complex publishing processes.

mAuthor is not just an authoring tool. It is a complete Development Platform to support and manage the ePublishing process. It allows the assignment of different tasks to different roles including: authors, instructional designers, editors, graphic designers, reviewers or testers. You can also create your own roles to customize the development environment to your specific needs.

Thanks to Big Data functionality Educational publishers obtain the powerful tool that allows them to really assess the quality of their materials. By analyzing the interaction of thousands of students with a particular activity, they can see how difficult it is for the users and perform corrective actions to make it clearer and more effective. By regular analysis and improvement of all their eContent elements, publishers can perfect their new electronic “textbooks” and make them gradually more and more intelligent and reactive to students’ different behaviour.
