Most elearning courses I see are info-centric and just push content out. Instead they’re questions to get the learner to reflect on the content. In addition, the process of having to create engaging questions forces us as course developers to put the content into a context that’s relevant to the learner.

Typically elearning courses start from existing content. And often that content dictates how the course is structured and how it looks. You don’t want existing content to dictate the design of your course. Many elearning courses start as classroom content that needs to be converted and put online. Easy enough.
