In preparation for the next assignment, I continued with the research. One of the requirements was to find out what other companies are doing to move their training materials online.
The article reviewed began by comparing the evolution of cinematography to the evolution of learning delivery. This was a surprisingly insightful comparison. The authors then differentiated between traditional instructor led learning and e-learning.
The main point of the article is that dumping power point slides or other existing training material is terribly problematic for e-learning goals. The transition of existing materials must also include any background information that the instructor has traditionally provided.
One important quote from the text is, "Consider two basic things: a) What are the crucial elements, concepts, and information that need to be communicated? b) How can the online medium’s capabilities be used to communicate these concepts and information? Doing this well takes a lot of time, expertise, and resources. "
I will ensure that my project includes clear and self-explanatory information along with training materials that can function without the support of an instructor. Content must be complete and accurate.
