Linear courses are often the result of our focus on sharing information and not knowing how to move beyond this. In today’s post we’ll look at a few guiding principles that help in the transition from linear to interactive elearning. Instead of pushing information out, create a way for the learner to pull information in.

On top of all of that, applications like PowerPoint provide a lot of free graphics and templates and it’s easy to rely on those for the design part of the course. While these limitations are legitimate and present some obvious challenges, there’s no reason why you can’t take a step forward learning some basic graphic design concepts.

They could have done a better job by appealing to my emotions rather than provide a bunch of information. Often we focus on the cognitive part of learning which is all about the knowing.

If a new user needs the information, they get it. This is my preferred approach for a course that uses a conventional interface like those that come with the rapid elearning players.

Most elearning courses I see are info-centric and just push content out. Often there’s little concern about how relevant the information is to the learner. Thus the learner is usually not engaged and has to wade through a lot of information. This is something an information dump can’t easily do. YOUR E-Learning Survey.

Get Them to Pull Information. A good way to get them to pull information is creating a situation where they need to make an informed decision. Instead of dumping them with a pile of information, dunk them in a pool of opportunity. Let them deal with real-life situations and learn through their decision-making.

Because of this, the peer coach may take short cuts, not present complete information, or neglect the needs of the new person. Much of the new person’s learning is dictated by the peer coach’s own work flow. Elearning courses allow you to remove the person from the time and resource pressures of the real world.

For some it requires that all elearning center on performance. However, many elearning courses are less “learning” and more marketing. They’re about sharing information using elearning tools. For example, the human resources department is introducing a new bonus program and they want to have an “elearning course.”

A map lets you chart where you need to go and then provides a way for you to assess how far you’ve gone and where you’re currently at. When I do workshops on interactive elearning, one of the first points I make about engaging people is that they need to know what’s expected and how long it will take. Louis (ASTD).

It’s a fact that you CAN build effective elearning with rapid elearning tools. All it requires is that you craft a sound learning strategy and get the most out of your tools. To demonstrate this, I deconstructed an effective elearning course originally built in Flash and then built a mock up in PowerPoint.

If it’s not relevant, it becomes a lot harder to keep their attention and to make the learning stick. Focus less on dumping information on the learner and more on what information they need to do what it is they’re supposed to do. You’re asking people to invest some of their valuable time in the elearning course.

Use multiple representations to provide the learner with multiple ways of accessing the information: visual or auditory. From the CFT vantage, multiple representations is not about providing the same information in a different format (the learning styles approach), but rather presenting different perspectives on that information.

I find that most rapid elearning developers are working by themselves or with very small teams. In those situations, their organizations don’t offer a lot of support to learn more about elearning. Typically, there’s no access to more experienced developers or others who can help them grow as an elearning developers.

A scenario can put the course content into a context that is relevant to the learners because they can use the information in a real world setting. Many times it’s just a lot easier to build an information-based course than it is to build a scenario. What you want to do is figure out how to connect the information to the learner.
