LEARNING IS MORE FUN WITH A LITTLE Interaction.
PUT YOUR TRAINING IN OVERDRIVE WITH INTERACTIVITY.
The brain can only handle so much "blah, blah, blah" at once.
It’s a scientific fact that interactivity turns “blah” into "yeah!"
(Or at least taps into long-term memory.)
Interactivity in e-learning = read + hear + act
people retain:
-
10%
of what they hear
-
20%
of what they read
-
30%
of what they see during a demonstration
-
75%
of what they practice
-
90%
of what they teach or use immediately
THREE TACTICS TO PUT YOUR E-LEARNING INTERACTIVITY INTO
Beast mode:
-
Learner to Content
The way a user interacts with the actual information in the course.
Quizzes
Games
Simulations
Storyline
-
Learner to Learner
Exercises people do together can help build skills, all about connecting, creating, curating and collaborating.
Team activities
Peer reviews
Social learning
-
Learner to System
Much simpler than learner to content, users interact with the platform at a basic level.
Search functions
RSS feeds
Multi-player games
Ways to use stories in e-learning
Video · Comics · Audio narrative · Timeline
Implement Interactivity
Like a Boss.
Don’t overload on info.
Go deep into one topic instead of skimming multiple topics at once
Use checkpoints
Learners can address their own progress and feel confident about the road ahead
Progress bars
Levels
Forks in the road (paths)
Use the right tech
An e-learning platform like Bridge allows users to seamlessly develop or upload interactive elements right into courses
Know your audience
Don't make your learners bored or overwhelmed—keep the end in mind
List what to expect in the course
Feed into what drives them
Estimate the length for each component
Structure courses strategically
When building courses, consider:
How much content you’re presenting
Length of total course
Time needed to complete each component
What are you waiting for?
Take action!
