Raptivity (Rapid + interactivity) is an eLearning interactivity building tool with a set of pre-built interaction models. [1] [2] Raptivity is used to create interactions which can be added to eLearning content, enabling interactive learning.[3][4] Raptivity has been designed and developed by Harbinger Knowledge Products.[5]

Raptivity has a pre-built library of about 180 games, surveys, simulations, 3D objects, virtual world interactions, videos – interactions based on best practices in instructional design.[6] It is used to publish the interactions as Flash (SWF) files - to be used as stand-alone learning spots or added to a course built with another authoring tool.[7][8] Course creators can create and add learning interaction models in Flash and HTML5 format using Raptivity.[9] Courses with HTML5 interaction models can play on iPhone and iPad devices.[10]

Raptivity was first launched in January 2006.[11] The further versions of Raptivity have been 5.0 (May 2008),[12] 5.6 (June 2010),[13] 6.0 (August 2010),[14] [15] 6.5 (June 2011) and 7.0 (November 2011).
