Content, Content (Not To Mention Content) … How To Best Design & Deliver It<br />
#252: Simple, But Not Trivial<br />
Ask yourself as a designer whether you are not trivializing e-Learning events by presenting<br />
images as cartoons. There is a whole set of discourses around the use of cartoons.<br />

#253: Production, Production, Production<br />
Spend more money on "producing" content, not only on "creating" it. Content on TV or films or even computer games<br />
take very detailed pre-production, production and post-production efforts precisely so they can test the impact on the<br />
public and give a really engaging experience. The content for e-Learning needs a more complex development<br />
process than preparing a class or writing a book -- otherwise the outcome and user's impression will be poor.<br />

#254: What Tickles Your Audience's Fancy?<br />
Understand the demographics of your audience - as a marketeer would do. Understand what<br />
motivates, inspires and captivates them. In a corporate environment it is unlikely that the "best"<br />
course in terms of learning pedagogy will be the truly effective one.<br />

#255: Consistent To The Core<br />
When developing e-Learning in-house, use a consistent navigational path. This enables the learners to<br />
focus on the material and not spend time trying to figure out how to navigate through the content. Also, use<br />
a consistent template to help "brand" the overall look and feel of the modules.<br />

#256: Fit For A Purpose<br />
Content is king. Whizzy and interesting AND not just whizzy where the content is lost.<br />

#257: Real Estate Is Extremely Valuable - Don't Waste It<br />
Make sure you focus on substance not flash. There are many "cool" things that can be done. Make sure that<br />
you are including them for learning reasons, not for entertainment. Interactions need to add value. Don't let the<br />
interface get in the way of the interaction. In a "simulation, don't waste the learners time by having them press<br />
buttons to go up and down - everything must have a purpose. That purpose should be related to the education<br />
and your objectives. You must always focus on the objectives and outcomes, not the interface.<br />

#258: Don't Give The Answers Away<br />
Provide several different levels of feedback and avoid giving the participants too many hints as<br />
this gives them motivation to self-correct their errors.<br />

#259: Navigation Without Guessing<br />
Keep it simple, simple, simple . . . Make it easy, easy, easy . . Interactivity does not mean "Click Next!"<br />
