I get lots of questions from those who are just getting started with rapid elearning. They want to know what they can do to build good elearning. The same goes for elearning. You won’t necessarily build world-class elearning the first time you build an elearning course. Treat elearning like a textbook.

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.

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.

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.

Recently someone asked how to combine their mentoring program with elearning courses. 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. This is something I’ve worked on a few times over the years.
