“It's important that you understand your audience to determine the value that mobile learning will provide for your organization," says J.R. Wymer, senior product specialist for mobile learning at GeoLearning.
Elearning in the past has been very dull, consisting of endless Powerpoint slides delivered on screen. The end result of this type of elearning is often that people just start to read and do not fully engage with information or learning objectives.
The voice is a powerful tool if used correctly, and well-delivered audio on top of slides for example can make the slides and content come alive. Interactivity is also important, practicing in a controlled environment causes links to form between a person knowing how to do something and actually doing it.
Growth Engineering offers a web based learning and elearning service where ‘interactions’ can be created - where your course-takers come out of passive mode and interact with the course. This may be clicking on different areas of a Timeline, or clicking on areas of a screenshot or product photo to learn more. Audio, graphic and video multimedia elements are also available to make the elearning experience as varied and as real-life as possible.
Creating and delivering eLearning is an extremely effective way of providing targeted, powerful training in the most cost efficient way for your staff. Find Out more about elearning services with Growth Engineering. Telephone: 01753 840 331, Email: info@growthengineering.co.uk
