I create eLearning. Oh, I see."

I recommend having a motivating example before you bother showing learners the things theyll be able to do afterwards; if they dont understand why its important, they wont care what they can do. Belatedly, Im thinking that there are relatively easy ways to enable learners to have cake or to eat it as they see fit.
