These channels might include video, blogs, websites, games and more. Using transmedia, we could create a narrative around the learning objectives or organisational problem and then use different channels and platforms to tell different parts of the story.

He has kept his definition deliberately broad to take in everything from self-study lessons on a PC to social learning on mobile devices, use of video and virtual classrooms which deliver live group workshops. Videos, podcasts, PDFs, screencasts etc. Clive argues that there are five basic forms of eLearning: 1.

Allow learners to upload or add links to useful resources, web sites and videos. Not only will this provide useful feedback but it also prompts a valuable reflection process in the reviewer. Include a like / unlike function so that the more useful resources can be identified and those less so, weeded out.

We still love video. Because of increasing access speeds video is very popular, but then again – it always was – we can just consume it more easily. These tend to be those who have come from a traditional training background and who struggle to break free from the paradigm of ‘courses’. What’s next?

In two years time, almost everyone will have a phone that can run apps, access the web, view and shoot video, play and record audio, run games and more. Most of us enjoy stories, videos and games, so applying this same approach to learning makes sense. But why should you consider it? 1. Many people now have smartphones.

We might read an article, watch some YouTube videos, ask someone’s advice or attend a course online or in person. As humans we understand that we learn skills best by doing, by thinking about what went well and how we could improve, and by trying again, and again, and again. Sports men and women are particularly good at this.

Use of storytelling, for example, via videos of employees talking about their experiences of working for the organisation can make abstract concepts come alive and be very effective in terms of illustrating culture and key values. This prevents information overload and allows best medium for delivery to be chosen.

If I want to know the best way to solder a joint or set a stone, I’ll Google it, find a video on YouTube or ask my social network of fellow jewellers. We’re so used to self-directed learning these days that we forget we’re even doing it. I’m a trainee silversmith in my spare time.

It included eccentric characters (a hell-raising brain in a jar and a thespian pirate, amongst others), 3D games in tombs and deserts, collaborative mindmaps, videos, rapid elearning, interactive webinars and more, all accessed from a social network. Jane Hart, Clive Shepherd and Patrick Dunn all helped to shape ReD in the early stages.

Such a job title encompasses video, computer games, mobile apps, alternative reality games, workshops, coaching and yes, elearning courseware – really any form that a learning experience could take. We should instead see ourselves as learning experience designers. We should be able to design for any of these formats.

You then need to identify the knowledge that people would need to complete the practice activities and include this in the goal, you could do this as text, a video, a link to an existing piece of elearning or links to other relevant resources – but keep it short. Don’t overburden learners with un-necessary content.

The production of video, graphics and audio? What’s the biggest cost in any elearning or training programme? The instructional design time? The subject matter expert’s time? It is the time it takes your learners to go through the material.

Consider using videos and animations and mixing delivery up a bit. Is there a place for click-to-continue elearning? Maybe; if you really need to use it, stick to the essential messages and keep it short – let’s face it, no one wants to sit and be lectured at for an hour.

These might be in the form of videos, blogs, games quizzes or even simulations. So what does microlearning look like in our world? Microlearning is short, bite-sized chunks of learning tightly focussed on essential skills or knowledge. More often than not, they’ll be delivered to a mobile phone.

Would an audio or video clip help to convey the message more effectively? Use the right tool for the job. Think about your training need. Does it require a full-blown elearning solution or could you use something cheaper and simpler, such as informal media? 4. Work with your peers and share knowledge.

Besides the informal learning in the social network, further material can be presented as either rapid elearning content or informal media (video clips, podcasts, narrated presentations, short documents or links to external resources for example YouTube videos, websites and so on).

I have some experience of shooting interviews and simple location video for use in elearning projects and was expecting a handful of enthusiastic amateurs mucking about with camcorders. You can view a little “making of” video here. A friend asked for volunteers to lend a hand. High Dynamic Range (HDR) camera.
