One the one hand, there are some obvious costs associated with it.

When Should You Avoid Branching Scenarios?

Experiencing eLearning

Branching scenarios are great. They’re engaging, and they give learners opportunities to practice realistic decision making. However, no solution is the right approach 100% of the time. Sometimes, another strategy makes more sense. Not a Series of Decisions. Branching scenarios are perfect when you want to show a series of decisions, where the consequences of each decision determine what choices are available next.

How to Teach Cooking Online, Part I: Finding Your Angle

LearnDash

Online education isn’t just for academic subjects. The first search I ever made online was for a picture of a mustang—the horse, not the car. It was also my first lesson in SEO and searcher intent : words matter, so choose them carefully. My second search was for a cookie recipe. I don’t know what inspired me to turn to the Internet for this (it was the late nineties, so the Internet was still slow and cumbersome), but I do remember how excited I felt when my search worked.

Free eBook - Interactive Learning Design: Using An Interactive Learning Software To Increase Engagement In eLearning Courses

Involving learners is key to engaging them and making sure that the information actually sticks.

It's "where the money is", or better yet, where the money is lost. After all, why would we put all of this energy into the logistics of teaching valuable information to our employees when we aren't even sure if it's useful?

Is Your Design Really “Responsive?”

. One of the biggest points of confusion I’ve seen evolve in recent years is how people use the word “responsive” when speaking about device-independent eLearning.
