Content, Content (Not To Mention Content) … How To Best Design & Deliver It<br />

#215: Learn, Don't Read<br />

Putting existing material onto the web is not e-Learning, but e-Reading. The most successful interventions<br />

are those that include a fair amount of planning, innovation and active user involvement.<br />

Natalie Santos<br />

Liberty Life<br />

#216: Get To The Point<br />

Edit what you write - even more carefully when you write for online vs. print. Be concise and<br />

clear. Re-read and remove any extra words or phrases that add no value to what you are trying<br />

to say. A good idea is to play your text through the robotic text reader you may have installed on<br />

your computer and listen with your eyes closed. Any "mistakes" show up well this way.<br />

#217: Don’t Just PowerPoint<br />

Do not transform your existing PowerPoint slide into e-Learning content. Create the content<br />

from scratch based on multi-sensorial learning techniques.<br />

#218: Real Users, Real Scenarios<br />

Involve a selection of end users in the design process and create real business scenarios. This<br />

ensures the exercises and assessments are business related and helps get e-Learning buy-in.<br />

#219: Chunk Your Training<br />

Keep you lessons at 30 minutes or less but if training on a new application, 60 minutes or less is<br />

best. Online recordings? 20 minutes or less.<br />

Ginger Jones<br />

Siemens Energy & Automation<br />

#220: Curriculum is not a Four-Letter Word<br />

Clearly identify the objectives of the course and then focus all material, information and activities on<br />

those objectives.<br />

USM Muskie School<br />

#221: Cover All Your Bases<br />

Design e-Learning to reflect all adult learning styles: visual, auditory and tactile.<br />

Janet Clarey<br />

Utica National Insurance Group<br />

#222: A Graphic Is Worth A Thousand Words<br />

Graphics are great to back up what it is that one wants to put forward. Text and pictures are not always enough.<br />

Meeting More Minds<br />

#223: Deliver What They Want<br />

Know your audience. It's critical that they are comfortable with the method of delivery.<br />
