Thursday, February 21, 2008 My Client is Addicted: Audio in eLearning Cathy Moore had a post a few months ago ( Addicted to Audio? that inspired me to change my approach to using audio in eLearning. She suggested using audio sparingly. When I see a need for a text heavy pages, I eliminate audio so as not to "depress learning." In the comments on Cathys post, there was a bit of discussion about switching back and forth between pages with and pages without audio.

With the coming of affordable 2G and 3G networks for mobiles , it is like we have been hardwired to Instant Messaging (IM) on our phones. In fact, IM applications have evolved to provide much more than simple text-and-emoticon messaging. There’s voice notes, voice calls, video chats, audio/video sharing, location sharing and everything; organized in a way that makes communicating so much simple, handy and fun.

In the context of e-Learning (back then it was just plain old CBT), this meant you had audio/video on the screen with timed text bullets. The learner could listen to the audio if her preferred style was auditory, OR read the text if her preferred style was visual. This means that I learn best through my visual channel, next kinesthetic, with audio being my weakest channel. Im with you. I always tune out the audio and read ahead.

This strategy is called the ’Flipped Classroom’, where learning nuggets are created using very little text, but rich media, graphics, video or audio. If not tests, IM from mobile devices can be definitely utilized for gathering opinions on topics pertaining to the lessons learnt. For training sustenance the learners can also utilize texting or IM to receive instant feedback from experts on their handheld devices and feel more confident in their work – therefore, show better results.

Check audio quality. Good quality audio is critical. If your audience cannot hear you clearly, or if the audio has a lot of distortion or interference, participants may get frustrated and leave your webinar before it is over. Keep in mind that a good headset will often provide better quality audio than a laptop’s built-in microphone. When thinking about audio and selecting a place from which to present, also consider the likelihood of background noise.

In the future of collaboration in the workplace, tools like IM along with other real-time applications will gradually replace email. The idea of a single portable device that can make phone calls, take pictures, record audio and video, store data, music, and movies, and interact with the Internet — all of it — has become so interwoven into our lifestyles that it is now surprising to learn that someone does not carry one. “May we live in interesting times” –Chinese Proverb.
