Measure for Measure: Doing The “ROI” Thing<br />

#687: Don't Fall Into The "Just Because It's There" Syndrome<br />

Use e-Learning for what it does best - provide small chunks of knowledge when you need it<br />

("guerilla learning") or as an online reference tool, or as a prerequisite for foundational<br />

knowledge. Don't compare or treat it like classroom learning. And then only measure what's<br />

appropriate for the way you're using the e-Learning. Just because you CAN measure other<br />

things doesn't mean that you SHOULD.<br />

#688: Where Are We? Where Should We Be?<br />

Learning assessments are a tremendous tool to provide enormous value to both you and your<br />

learners. An assessment test is normally comprised of questions that help determine<br />

knowledge gaps and a good assessment tool will map those gaps automatically to learning<br />

solutions to provide a student with a personalized learning path. This is an area in which<br />

Internet delivery truly shines. Learning paths efficiently focus student efforts, time and money in<br />

areas most needed and as an aggregate, the data that is provided back to the management<br />

team provides an overview of knowledge gaps across the organization and therefore a very<br />

accurate compass to predict future content development areas.<br />

#689: Early and Ongoing<br />

Build in ways to measure the content, use, completion etc. on an ongoing basis. And do it early.<br />

#690: Gotta Prove It<br />

If you do not assess thoroughly the learning results and the satisfaction of your learners, forget<br />

about success. You'll never be able to prove it, even if it is real!<br />

#691: The Right Tool For The Survey Job<br />

If you are surveying your audience, use a tool that is designed to provide outcomes that you can<br />

analyze appropriately. Not all assessment tools provide feedback with analytical options.<br />

#692: Pay Attention To This KEY Question<br />

At the end of an e-Learning course, be sure to ask the simple question "Would you recommend this course to a<br />

colleague or friend?" Pay careful attention to the answers - you can learn a lot from just this one question.<br />

#693: Build Metrics Into Reporting<br />

Make sure that the evaluation metrics are scoped and built into the reporting capability of your<br />

e-Learning course at the start. This ensures that management get the data they need to<br />

measure learning performance and ROI while the programmer can build a neater application<br />

faster. Delivery time will be expedited and users will have to perform the user acceptance<br />

testing cycle once rather than in an iterative way until reporting requirements are nailed down.<br />
