Many elearning developers are working with limited resources. Most elearning courses I see are info-centric and just push content out.

Building elearning courses is hard enough. In the elearning world, sloppy asset management is like a box of tangled cords. Who owns the content and has final say on the design and implementation of the elearning courses? There’s a lot that goes into building elearning courses; and with that a lot that can slow things down.

My guess is that some of the most common screen elements in elearning courses are computer monitors. They’re nice to use because contextually they fit elearning. Here’s a quick mockup of how you could use the laptop image in an elearning course. I’m also doing a free Articulate jam session while in town.

Real learning isn’t a one-time event (like many elearning courses) where it’s just a matter of getting new information. But in an elearning course, I have a room and equipment that is always available. That’s one of the good things about elearning. And when she finally succeeded she let out a cry of joy. Free Willy!

It’s really an issue with a lot of training and elearning programs. Recognize that elearning courses aren’t the objective. It’s easy to be seduced by solutions because these seem tangible and active, especially with the simple and quick authoring of rapid elearning tools. They allow you to easily create solutions. No problem.

Because of my job, I get to look at a lot of elearning courses. When building elearning courses, everything on your screen should be there because you intended it to be there. Most rapid elearning designers aren’t also going to be outstanding graphic designers. This makes sense on a few fronts. Slide:ology.

While the application is versatile and great for elearning, many people still struggle to get past the PowerPoint look because the features are designed to encourage the use of the templates. But when you want to build “regular” elearning, then you use something else. And this is where the elearning community comes in handy.

One of the most frequent questions I get is how to find an elearning job. While the rest of the economy seems to be stuck in mud, this seems to be a good time to consider a career in elearning. Review other elearning courses or multimedia. There’s lots of power in the elearning community of practice. That’s fine.

At a recent session someone asked, “How do I measure the success of my elearning?”. While we may all use words like “elearning” we don’t always mean the same thing. On top of that, just because it’s built with an elearning tool doesn’t mean that the output is really an elearning course. That’s kind of a tricky question.

However, there are a few challenges with this type of training and many are overcome by blending elearning content with the peer coaching. That’s where elearning proves valuable.
