The other day I had a chance to ask Eric Lee a few questions about being a voice artist , storytelling, how he got started and why high quality audio is so important for effective eLearning.

One of the ways of doing this is through storytelling, people tend to be less anxious when they are listening to a story as opposed to being lectured (through a classroom lecture or on-screen audio). Games are another way. Being asked to participate in a game can reduce anxiety about the content of material a person needs to learn.

Whether it’s video or audio, it’s “chunkable” into 20 minutes, even text. Cisco guidelines are 20 minutes and there are very few things that exceed the 20 minute chunks except for some reading like a white paper, which may take longer. Learning events need to be short, quick, to the point and not necessarily linear.
