Users who have previously created e-learning materials using Adobe Captivate, Articulate Studio or Articulate Storyline and now want to learn an underlying design methodology to enable them to deliver more effective e-learning tutorials to a high professional quality.
PREREQUISITES
Participants should have some experience creating e-learning materials prior to attending this course.
GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
Having completed this course, participants will be able to:
- Understand and be able to apply principles of effective e-learning
- Understand IDEA: Olas’ effective e-learning design methodology “Inform, Do, Evaluate and Apply” – This is the result of research by Olas’ Eleni Iatridis (a Member of Institute of IT Training currently defining their industry standards for effective e-learning and performance support technologies)
- Understand how to build learning objects
- Create motivating and business-aligned learning objectives
- Understand how to make e-learning instructionally interactive
- Understand how to gather the right kind of learner feedback and error correction
- Use assessment techniques that truly test
- Correctly apply each e-learning mode: demo, practice, evaluation
