Learners need to be excited, challenged and engaged by course materials to become immersed learners. They also need consistency and patterns of approach to become independent and confident learners.
Learning design brings these needs together…
The Learning Design Exercise
Explores both the organisational objectives, the content and the context in which the training is to be deployed in order to:
- Create an instructional approach that is realistic in terms of the learning audience’s physical situation, their technical facilities and their abilities.
- Arrive at a learning strategy that employs an appropriate blend between on and offline learning, and informal and informal learning tools resources and activities.
- Produce a fixed template of engaging activities, behaviours and learning resources for the lessons, modules and the course as whole.
This services is for anyone
- Embarking on a full Happy eLearning project (as a standard process) or consultancy for their own projects.
- Who wants to produce their own materials in house, but following a template that has been created by instructional designers.
What you get
You receive a Course Blueprint.
A Course Blueprint details the content, learning , testing and feedback activities and methods that happen at lesson, module and course level.
If appropriate it will also assemble a pool of linked activities and resources such as social media, virtual learning communities and opportunities for learners to produce content.
