How about if it was an interactive experience instead? Cramster helps students with homework by providing answers to textbook questions and interactive support - think little pieces of eLearning for helping students figure out those problems. Of course, should it even be a lecture? Chegg is basically Netflix for textbooks.

In large universities where there is little to no interaction and the interaction is done with Teaching Assistants, why not have the lecture come from the absolute best teacher (hopefully one that is known in the field as well so you can drop names). You can still have a professor or teaching assistant handle the interaction.

), so I decided to look at the different definitions of eLearning in the various glossaries: eLearning / E-Learning - learning that is accomplished over the Internet, a computer network, via CD-ROM, interactive TV, or satellite broadcast. Typically used to describe media such as CD-ROM, Internet, Intranet, wireless and mobile learning.

this would be down notable dropping topics: games, simulations, knowledge, interactive and blended The fact that blended did not appear in a topic might suggest that it is assumed at this point - or maybe it's dead - see: Blended Learning Dead? It's interesting that interactive / interactivity is dropping.

I just saw a blog that appears to have been created solely as a means to interact, capture thoughts and ideas during the Brandon Hall Innovations conference. It's a great way for folks not at the conference to have a sense of what's going on there. And, I bet it is a fantastic learning and networking experience for the blogger.

At training and/or eLearning conferences where this question was asked of the attendees, the common kinds of responses are: How do I get more interactivity into my courseware? One conference organizer told me that eLearning session descriptions with "interactivity" in the title would draw larger audiences. What's the cut-off point?

Another portion of visual thinking is usability, information design, and interactivity. The use of space, color, images, text, and interactivity are all significant portions of the visual thinking space, and if not done well they can inhibit and even prevent learning from occurring. Uh, Tom, this is exactly user interface design.
