What is rapid eLearning?
Courseware
rapid creation of courseware by people who are less experienced with courseware development particularly subject matter experts
Templates
Simple Assessment
Multimedia
Short Learning Modules
But what is the biggest challenge?
Self Pace Best Practice
Give learners something to do with the content. Even if your course is info heavy, provide opportunities to apply learning to workplace context in the role they will occupy.
When presenting a problem, “content” can be provided in a variety of forms using video, audio and some text.
This gives more depth to typical “quiz” based assessment which test memory rather than understanding, problem solving and consequences of on the job of decision making.
Making sense out of the tough stuff
Story based self paced content
Character faces a challenge/journey
Show not tell
Make learners justify their choices. Challenge their assumptions and make them think deeply about the material.
Contextual feedback will help learners see where they went wrong

Decision making trees
•Present learners with situations with choices for dealing with the problem, with each choice leading to consequences and further choices
•The process of finding the solutions to the problems is more important than the solutions themselves.
