Learning Objectives Made Easy with This
Simple Tip
If
you’re required to list the learning objectives it doesn’t necessarily mean
they have to be presented as a list. You’ve probably seen those websites where
there’s a top image and underneath it are some buttons to reveal additional
images. Why not create something similar for the learning objectives of your
elearning course? Instead of listing all of the objectives as bullet points,
create a single objective on each screen. Then add a button that allows the
person to navigate through the objectives. It satisfies listing the objectives,
but it doesn’t force them to a bullet point list
How I would approach creating compliance
e-learning
Last week I reported on Towards Maturity's latest study, Reinvigorating
Compliance Training. The study showed clearly what
a hole we have got ourselves into with e-learning compliance training. More
often than not management is coming to us with a requirement for a simple
tell-and-test programme that does little more than tick boxes, and it seems
that we are only too keen to oblige. In the process we risk irreparable damage
to our status as professional designers and perpetuate management's perception
that we are mere order takers. It's easy to criticise, much harder to put
forward a solution. However, I like a challenge; so, it falls to me to put my
reputation on the line by suggesting how I would approach a request for
compliance e-learning. I'm going to assume that I've already explored the
alternatives and that e-learning stands a reasonable chance of influencing the
outcome. So what would I do?
Compliance - e-learning's greatest friend and worst enemy
Universally, lack of
employee engagement emerged as the biggest barrier to effectiveness – and is
linked strongly to the poor reputation of compliance e-learning. Ask yourself
what efforts you are currently making to really engage your audience and make
it relevant to them. If you are subjecting your employees to ‘death by
PowerPoint’, rolling out the same content year after year to everyone
regardless of their job role or risk profile, blinding the learner with
irrelevant detail about what the law says rather than what it means to them or
failing to engage your line managers in the process, then the chances are you
are potentially turning off the very people whose buy-in you need to
effectively mitigate your compliance risks.
