Fabella has been working toward one goal: help you launch the type of training people actually want to finish. We have spent the last few months focusing on that goal alone, building the features you need to make an impact in your business. 

We’re ecstatic to finally share those tools with you. 

Tools that can make a difference in the hands of real people, not just on paper. Let’s dive into exactly why Fabella is the most powerful, most loved tool for eLearning. 

Memorable Experiences

Introducing the New and Improved Fabella Player

What’s new?

Fabella’s Edu Player is the heart of the eLearning experience - where your learner meets training. Now reimagined to be more engaging, effortless to navigate, and most importantly, memorable

The Edu Player is designed with one core goal in mind: delivering a multi-sensory experience that feels natural and rewarding. With smooth transitions between content types, integrated quizzes, instant progress feedback, and streamlined media controls, the new Edu Player offers a frictionless learning journey that encourages learners to stay focused, complete training, and retain what they’ve learned.

This update gives you the tools for a delightful experience design. The experience changes things for your learner, which changes the potential you have for results.

Why You Should Care About This Experience Design in Training

It’s Research-Backed for Effectiveness

These changes are not just for the aesthetics, they are grounded in educational research. According to an article by Dr. Ravinder Tulsiani, multimedia elements like videos and interactive graphics significantly enhance learner engagement and retention by catering to different learning styles and stimulating multiple senses. 

The Fabella Edu Player brings these principles into action - offering learners a multimedia-rich environment that feels dynamic rather than passive. If you’re reading an article about eLearning, you probably knew this already. We just need you to know we’ve done the homework. 

It Enhances Retention and Comprehension

The strategic use and flow of multimedia in the Edu Player aligns with the Cognitive Theory of Multimedia Learning. This is a fancy way of saying that people learn more effectively when information is presented through both visual and auditory channels.

By combining text, visuals, and audio, the Edu Player helps learners build mental connections between concepts, leading to improved comprehension and long-term retention. 

It’s Fun (Yes, that matters)

Engaging multimedia content doesn't just improve understanding, it also improves the overall learning experience. Studies have shown that interactive and visually appealing eLearning materials can evoke positive emotions like interest and enjoyment (and who doesn’t want that?). Not only will it highly decrease the risk of boring your employees to death, but these emotions are actually critical for effective learning. 

The Edu Player's seamless design and interactive features aim to create a delightful learning environment, encouraging learners to stay motivated and actually complete their courses, while even retaining some light in their eyes. 

Inclusivity and Accessibility

Ensuring that training is inclusive and accessible to all isn’t just a moral imperative, it’s a strategic advantage. Fabella’s features carry these principles in their core. We have meticulously designed our tools to meet these needs, so every employee can thrive. 

Easy Multi-Device Learning

Modern pros are usually juggling many devices throughout their day. When learning with Fabella, they can start their course on one device and simply continue on another when it’s convenient for them. No interruption, no hassles. Fabella is always evolving with the work habits of employees, we want to ensure there are no barriers to learn and grow. 

Closed Captioning

Adding captions to your training not only supports the multimedia approach we’ve already gone over, but it fulfills an array of diverse learner needs. Individuals who are hard of hearing will have equal access to training materials. People in a sound-off environment don’t need to wait to complete their course. Plus, studies have proven that taking in the information in multiple formats (audio with captions) will reinforce learning and engage multiple senses.

Tap, Type, Talk

People engage with technology in different ways, and Fabella adapts to meet them where they are. Learners can tap, type, or talk their way through a course, using the method that feels most natural to them. This flexibility removes friction and gives everyone a sense of control over their learning experience. 

By accommodating different interaction styles, Fabella not only supports employees with specific needs but also caters to a broader range of learning preferences, leading to improved engagement and knowledge retention.

For the Creators

The Fabella Editor

The Fabella Editor has gotten a complete revamp with only you in mind. With the update, your course authoring process can be faster, more intuitive, and a lot more impactful. 

The interface is cleaner and easier to navigate, so you have no distractions when you need to focus on creating, editing, and launching courses easily. Not only will your learners love the end experience, but you’ll love the process of building it. 

Plus, we’ve made sure to align our approach with the best practices in eLearning design, emphasizing the importance of user-friendly interfaces to boost your productivity and reduce the cognitive load with research-backed UI design methods. 

Cloud-Based Architecture

With Fabella’s cloud-native architecture, gone are the days of dealing with downloads, installations, and complicated setups. Your courses are accessible no matter where you are, plus updates and collaboration can happen in real time. 

Instructional designers can develop, deploy, and update training materials directly in the cloud, ensuring that content is always accessible and up-to-date. There is a growing need to support flexibility and scalability in eLearning, and endless data to boast the benefits of cloud-based solutions to this problem. 

Fabella is packed with the technical capabilities you need for advanced eLearning, and it won’t overwhelm you with complexity. It’s the best of both worlds: power and ease, all in one place.

Collaborative

Seamless Team Invites

Fabella's intuitive team invitation system simplifies the onboarding process, allowing team members to join projects with just a few clicks. This ease of access ensures that collaboration can commence straight away, minimizing delays and fostering a cohesive working environment. This way, there’s a lot less time spent on setup and more time spent collaborating and creating together.

Real-Time Collaboration Server

The upgraded Collaboration Server facilitates real-time co-authoring, allowing team members to work simultaneously on projects. This feature ensures that content remains up-to-date and that all contributors are aligned throughout the development process.

The Strategic Importance of Collaboration in eLearning

Your Content Quality Improves with Diverse Expertise

Being able to bring together professionals with varied backgrounds and expertise - like instructional designers, subject matter experts, or multimedia specialists - results in richer training content. 

Better collaboration and more eyes on your work-in-progress project can lead to material that is more accurate, engaging, and aligned with the company and learning objectives. According to Classic Business Guide, this sort of collaboration improves the overall quality and effectiveness of eLearning content. 

Development and Deployment Happen Faster

By enabling team members to work simultaneously on different aspects of course creation, collaborative platforms like Fabella reduce development time and expedite the deployment of training programs. Enterprise eLearning Hub notes that this distribution of tasks among team members leads to a more efficient process, as tasks are completed simultaneously rather than sequentially. 

AI-Powered Creation and Experiences

Synthetic Voices

AI is here to make your job faster, smarter, and more efficient. With synthetic voices, you can:

  • Create high-quality narration instantly.
  • Quickly edit and deploy voiceovers.
