Does anyone have a SPECIFIC brand of software that they have used and can recommend? Seeking solutions which allow for a blended classroom/online solution.
Timothy,
I to use this suite (it is sweet) :). All of the tools provide the instructors creative ways to create engaging content.

I have found that the Adobe Creative Suite for Educators is the most invaluable tool set for teachers working both on- and off-line. Because all of their software can be licensed through the Creative Cloud now for only 19.00 per month, the entire suite is affordable too. Photoshop, Illustrator, In-Design are programs that I use to write, design, and publish course information and lessons. Soundbooth, Premiere, and After Effects allow me to edit and publish multimedia such as moving presentations and films that I embed directly into the learning platform. Although all of these are advanced programs, Adobe offers free asynchronous tutorials online, and many local community college offer brick and mortar classes and seminars in design and technique using these tools. Although an investment in time and some money is necessary to master these tools, such mastery pays off in a hundred thousand ways.
