There are numerous
ways of e-learning. But it is
always advisable to take the easy path of e-learning in a simpler way. Learning
is not always an activity we look forward to. Trainings can be monotonous, especially in the context
of ‘pure’ technology-aided learning. We do not have an instructor talking to
the class, including when attention flounders and suitably interjecting relief
from time to time.
e-learning can effectively provide relief as well as challenge the learners to
think and apply assimilated learning. e-learning focused on instruction but aiming to make learning as enjoyable
and intriguing as possible.
There are 5 simpler ways to have the knowledge of e-learning.
1. Exploring Diagrams :- There are two ways of creating diagrams viz. 2D or 3D
diagram. The diagram can be made interactive through simple animation and text.
As the learner moves on, the mouse through different parts of the diagram, they
pop up and spring to life. Learner interactivity can be increased by
encouraging them to predict next steps or explaining certain parts of the
diagram in their own words. To increase
interactivity and the choice of personalized learning, simple tools like a
‘magnifying glass’ icon can be provided that enables the learner to see a
particular section in detail.
2. Another way of learning is Audio-visual based questions:- Audio-visuals are
now part of modern commercial training, when inserted to provide interactivity,
they provide visual/auditory stimulus to engage the learners effectively.
An audio-visual clip of a task being performed should be shown to the learners.
Their response is on whether it was done right or how can performance be
improved, can be then ascertained and shown the right path. Alternatively, an
audio-visual can be shared and the learners encouraged themselves criticize it through a series of questions
that follow the clip.
3. Challenge and response: a learner should asked FAQ and conduct his own
interview. Virtual interview can be conducted, asking questions, prompting the
learners to take action and explaining their decisions through a dialogue with
a person of authority. Learner choose a real-life scenario that the learner could face in course of desk
work.
4. Teach-back activities:- It can be learnt is an another best way of learning
corporate teachings which can
effectively used for e-learning and utilized practically. Exercise could be
asked and replied to assemble relevant material from where he or she has learnt
in the e-course, in order to learn a specific topic.
5. Virtual labs inter activities:- another way of learning is stimulation which
only stimulate the learner
into thinking but encourage him to actually ‘do’ with 3D simulations and games in a virtual environment. This promises to make the interactive
experience as close to real world as possible.
In my view it can be done in a more interesting and enjoyable ways. Beside that
it will occupy the time and consume the other sources of enjoyment.
