Elearning Examples and Inspiration

Elearning developers should provide the first, and maybe the most thorough, quality assurance (QA) of an elearning module. Our team uses an elearning QA checklist to ensure that we hand off a high quality course to teammates or stakeholders.  Our team at Endurance Learning was inspired to improve how elearning developers do quality assurance based on what we know about software development unit testing. A unit test is a method for testing your work before ...

Learner certificates often appear at the end of a course to verify and recognize the achievement of a learner. Articulate Storyline has made it very easy to do this by adding a print slide trigger. Today’s blog post outlines the steps to elevating this print feature to a lightbox slide. It includes how to build it and a downloadable file as well!

While this new Rise360 feature is really fun to play with, microlearning  isn’t a one size fits ...

In this series of blog posts, we take one training activity, and convert it into three delivery modalities: Instructor-Led Training (ILT), Virtual Instructor-Led Training (VILT), and Elearning. What does it take to convert ILT to Elearning and VILT? Creativity and a focus on learning objectives! Are you looking for training activities? Perhaps your training programs have adapted from in-person (ILT) to virtual (VILT), and now you’re swinging back in the direction of in-person again or ...

I struggled with animation in elearning until I found this simple approach. As an elearning developer at Endurance Learning, I am often hopping in and out of project files to update them, make edits, or add something to the module. Sometimes I am very familiar with the content or have been the initial developer on the project. At other times, I am jumping into totally unfamiliar territory, like using animation in elearning. On those occasions ...

My colleague, Lauren Wescott, recently highlighted one of our projects that focused on collecting learner responses in order to create a meaningful reflection activities in elearning.  A typical way to collect a learner response is through a text entry variable which allows someone to type in their response to a prompt. This response can be saved and compared to another statement, or gathered to view at a later time. However, we recently created a way ...
