We all remember our school days. Some lessons we loved, some we hated. Practical exercises and watching videos were typically met with rejoice, while burying our heads in a textbook could make an hour lesson feel like a lifetime. In order to improve the delivery of our less exciting content, we first need to understand exactly what it is that makes training fun and engaging.

Because understanding how we learn influences how we teach. If I had to guess, I would say that most online educators don’t think of themselves as “instructional designers.” They usually view themselves as subject matter experts —they know their area very well, and are starting an online course to share their expertise with others who are interested in learning it.

In a past life I worked with a fellow named Jim who was very good at what he did. As what I would term a “trainer”, he was well versed in face-to-face delivery and widely respected in the business as a subject matter expert. He had also racked up quite a tenure at the company, so he was considered something of a stalwart. In my own role, though, I could see what Jim couldn’t: the incoming wave of e-learning.

Synchronous (a.k.a. “live”) sessions are some of the most time-intensive work you can do as an educator. How can you make them more useful? As an educator, time is your most valuable resource. It’s the one thing you can’t scale easily as your course audience grows, and the main limiting factor in keeping you from reaching your goals. There just isn’t enough time.

There are plenty of great authoring tools for developing eLearning, but the one you select could directly impact your course's outcomes. Depending upon your learners’ needs and your organization’s performance goals, you could be overlooking considerations that impact the both effectiveness of your courses and how long it takes to finish them. From general capabilities to specific workflow structures, some aspects are critical when it comes to learning objectives and deadlines.

Rather than delivering eLearning content as a lecture, you can explain it through conversations. While stakeholders might ask for more resource-intensive multimedia, you have a range of options with this technique. It’s possible to use conversations even with a low budget. In the past, I’ve created conversation-driven eLearning with video, animation, and photos.

There’s no question that automation and digitalization are disrupting the way businesses work. While automation creates great opportunities for data analysis and streamlined operations, it leaves many companies struggling to keep up. One of the most jarring ramifications of automation in the workplace are the skill gaps left in its wake—skill gaps within roles, departments, and entire businesses.

We’ve all been there. You’ve been given a pile of dry content and asked to create a compelling eLearning course. You’re determined to create something more engaging than the same old course that learners quickly click through, but how do you take this “boring” content and create something relevant and engaging?

They say life’s a journey. The same is true for learning. We’re always learning (at least, we should be) – especially at work. If we stick with this “learning’s a journey” metaphor, then your learning management system (LMS) is the vehicle. And, like anyone who’s been on a long road trip in an old car will tell you, the vehicle can absolutely make or break the experience.

Access Agony. As discussed in part one of this discussion , having a workplace digital divide creates, “Access Agony 1 ”.

In today's tight labor market, hiring and retaining top talent is more challenging than ever. Every day a job remains unfilled means lost productivity and revenue. But vacancies can affect much more than your revenue. There are multiple direct and indirect costs, and it's crucial to adapt your recruiting strategies to prioritize the most costly open roles.
