Image Zoom

Let learners zoom into an image and inspect the fine detail.

Best for: diagrams, inspection, close reading.

Technical diagrams get scaled down to fit the content block, which removes the exact detail the diagram existed to show. The learner sees a small gray rectangle with unreadable labels.

Image Zoom keeps the detail available. You upload the full-resolution image, set the focus areas, and export a single HTML file you embed in Articulate Rise, Storyline, Captivate, Canvas, Moodle, or any LMS that accepts HTML.

Use it for schematics, inspection training, historical documents, and any content where the important thing is small and the slide is not.

WHY IT WORKS

Image Zoom lets learners enlarge an image and inspect fine detail.

Signals that show how text and pictures connect improved comprehension, most of all for learners new to the topic. Richter, Scheiter and Eitel (2016).
