Course & Content · Presentation Mode

Turn any chapter into a guided, interactive learner experience.

Vacademy's Presentation Mode lets learners walk through chapters slide-by-slide — auto-tracked progress, embedded MCQs, branching paths, replay-able videos, and an instructor commentary track. Designed for self-paced + flipped-classroom + cohort delivery.

Why teams switch

The status quo is costing your team time and money

Self-paced courses are silent — and learners disengage

A 90-minute video playlist with a 'Next' button at the end isn't learning. Learners zone out, replay-watch becomes the norm, completion rates tank.

Active checkpoints every 2–5 minutes

SCORM packages are 2005

Traditional SCORM packages are clunky, hard to update, and break across LMSes. Authoring them needs Adobe Captivate or Articulate at $$$.

Native presentation, editable inline, no SCORM

Flipped classroom needs structure, not a YouTube playlist

Asking learners to 'watch the video before class' fails when the video is unbranded, untracked, and silent. There's no signal you can act on.

Pre-class presentations with tracked engagement signals

Inside Presentation Mode

Slides + checkpoints + branching · all in one flow

Slide progress bar, MCQ checkpoint, adaptive branching rules, and per-slide engagement signals.

How a presentation runs

Slide-by-slide, with checkpoints, for any pace

Presentation Mode reads your authored chapter and serves it as a guided experience. Embedded checkpoints, branching paths, and replay-anywhere — all tracked per learner.

01

Author once

Build a chapter in normal course authoring — videos, slides, code labs, MCQs, notebooks. No separate 'presentation' tool; the chapter is the presentation.

02

Add checkpoints + branches

Drop MCQs between slides as 'checkpoints'. Optionally add branching: 'if learner got it right, skip example; if wrong, show extra example'. Adaptive scaffolding.

03

Learner walks through

Learners advance slide-by-slide at their pace; can't skip checkpoints. Videos auto-pause at end; replays + speed control built-in. Mobile-native, offline-cache-able.

04

Track + intervene

Per-learner per-slide progress + checkpoint scores feed analytics. Teachers see who's stuck where — and trigger 1:1 or remedial automatically.

What's inside

Self-paced doesn't mean self-abandoned

Map these to your workflow →

Slide-by-slide pacing

Learner advances explicitly; system tracks dwell time per slide. Auto-pause on videos at end. No 'set-and-forget' background tabs.

Embedded checkpoints

Drop MCQ checkpoints between slides. Learner must answer (configurable: required vs optional) before advancing. Scores feed report card.

Branching paths

If-then routing: 'got it right → skip example, go to next concept'; 'got it wrong → show extra worked example'. Adaptive scaffolding per learner.

Instructor commentary

Optional audio commentary per slide — your instructor's voice guiding the learner alongside the on-screen content. Voice-cloned to scale your best presenter.

Offline + mobile

Capacitor-based mobile apps cache the presentation for offline use. Learner watches on the train; progress syncs when reconnected.

Per-slide analytics

See exactly which slide each learner is on, where they got stuck, where they replayed, where checkpoints went wrong. Surgical intervention possible.

What changes for self-paced learning

Engagement at scale, without 1:1 mentoring

+38%
Completion rate

Self-paced courses with embedded checkpoints vs flat-video courses.

−72%
Tab-out rate

Active checkpoints break the silent-disengagement pattern.

Mobile engagement

Offline-cached, slide-by-slide presentations work better on phones.

100%
Per-slide visibility

Know which exact slide every learner is on — and where they got stuck.

Wired into the platform

Presentation Mode feeds the whole platform

Per-slide events stream into the Automation Engine and analytics. Stalled learners trigger outreach; checkpoint scores drive remediation; commentary audio re-renders with voice clones.

Trigger mentor outreach if a learner is stuck on the same slide > 48 hours.

Open a remedial micro-presentation if a checkpoint MCQ scores below threshold.

Send 'almost there!' WhatsApp at 80% completion to drive finish-line behaviour.

Re-render audio commentary in 6 languages from one source using AI Avatar Videos.

Built for every team

Who uses Presentation Mode

Curriculum / Content

  • Convert flat video playlists into active presentations
  • Add checkpoints + branching with no separate tool
  • Drop SCORM authoring tools entirely

Teachers (Flipped Classroom)

  • Pre-class presentations with measurable engagement
  • Walk into class knowing which concepts confused which learners
  • Use checkpoint data as the basis for that day's lesson plan

Operations / Compliance

  • Verify training completion at slide-level, not just course-level
  • Audit-grade record of who walked through what when
  • Issue certificates only when all checkpoints clear

Customer spotlight

Corporate compliance training · 8,400 employees

Our annual compliance training used to be a 90-min webinar nobody watched. We rebuilt it as a Vacademy Presentation with 14 checkpoint MCQs. Completion went from 41% to 96%, and audit reports now show exact slide-level engagement per employee.

Head of L&D, Fortune-500 corporate L&D

Completion: 41% → 96% in one cycle
Per-slide audit log for compliance
Mentor time on chasing completion: −82%

Frequently asked

Common questions from buyers

How is this different from a SCORM package?+

Presentation Mode is native, not a packaged export. Edits go live immediately; no re-packaging. Tracking is real-time per slide (not just per module). Branching is dynamic. And there's no Articulate / Captivate licence — authoring is in Vacademy.

Does it work offline?+

Yes — Vacademy mobile apps (Android + iOS via Capacitor) cache presentations for offline. Learners walk through offline; progress syncs when reconnected. Useful for low-connectivity regions.

Can we add audio commentary in our instructor's voice?+

Yes — pair with Voice Cloning (under AI Avatar Videos). Generate per-slide commentary in your instructor's cloned voice; re-render in any language with the same voice.

What kind of branching is supported?+

MCQ-outcome branching (right answer → skip; wrong → extra example), score-based branching (≥80% → advanced track; <80% → core track), and explicit choice branching (learner picks 'show me proof' vs 'show me intuition').

Can presentations be exported to SCORM for external LMSes?+

Yes — export to SCORM 1.2 / 2004 or xAPI for use in external LMSes (corporate L&D often requires this). The richer per-slide tracking is only available natively in Vacademy.

From silent videos to active presentations

Bring one existing chapter — we'll convert it.

Send us one chapter (videos / slides / notes). In a 30-min session we'll convert it to a Presentation with checkpoints + branching, and walk a sample learner through it live.
