Why evaluate your e-learning?

Tue, 19 Apr 2011 08:21:34 -0400

E-learning projects have recorded some spectacular successes. These successes may suggest that your e-learning projects will work equally well. Reported success should encourage you but not convince you. As they say in the auto-mobile advertisements: "Your mileage may vary," or, as is printed at the bot-tom of a stock prospectus: "Past results do not guarantee future performance." First, realize that only successful projects tend to be reported. If a project was not completed, or if its failure would embarrass the sponsors, the project will probably not make it into the academic or trade press. And, even if other projects have succeeded, their success may not signify much for your project if it differs in substantial ways. You have different goals, face different problems,and rely on different resources. By the time you complete your project, the conditions that led to success in earlier projects may have vanished. Or, new technology may offer solutions to problems that stymied earlier projects. In any case, someone else's success does not benefit you. Only your success does that. Only your evaluation can measure your success. Specific Reasons to Evaluate Before evaluating e-learning, you need to be clear about why you are evaluating. **End Summary** Topics: elearning]]> Custom elearning solutions]]> Elearning India]]> elearning solution]]> e learning software India]]> learning management system]]> LMS]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Rajesh Rastogi has been managing and maintaining various learning management system for the past five years.

Analytical and Decision-Making Techniques

Wed, 13 Apr 2011 00:57:31 -0400

Here are techniques for business analysis and decision making that should help you as you implement your e-learning, Run through these techniques whenever you are making major decisions until they become second nature to you. Trade-off. Every business decision is a trade-off. (If there's no trade-off, there's really no decision to be made.) List the pros and cons of the alternatives you are weighing. Try to be aware of what you're trading off when making a decision. Risk. Every decision is made with less-than-perfect information, and every decision entails taking a risk. The way to make sound decisions is to judge when you have enough information to move ahead and when the level of risk is acceptable. A decision maker who takes no risk receives no reward. A decision maker who disregards risk is a fool, a pauper, or both. Financial decisions trade off risk and reward. Make sure your upside reward outweighs your downside risk. Empathy. To understand your customers, walk a mile in their shoes. Here's how: Make up several representative customers (personas). Give them names, positions, preferences, gripes, habits, intelligence, and personalities. **End Summary** Topics: elearning]]> Custom elearning solutions]]> Elearning India]]> elearning solution]]> e learning software India]]> learning management system]]> LMS]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> Rajesh Rastogi has been managing and maintaining various learning management system for the past five years.

Effects of E learning Successful organizations understand that investing in workplace learning and performance is the key to a highly skilled workforce,"said Tony Bingham, president and CEO of ASTD. Corporates investments in online learning technologies are paying off through cost savings and efficiency gains as e-learning reaches a high level of complexity. A good example Cisco Systems created an innovative training program called E-Service Training (EST), which makes the most of the potential of Internet capabilities and technologies. The objective of the EST program is to ensure that Field Engineers are ready to repair and maintain new merchandise as soon as they're released to consumers. Owing to the speedy nature of new product deployment, the growing number of products, and the global location of consumers, training all of the FEs in time becomes very complicated. The E-Service Training program changed the conduct of both the people who created training, as well as those who received it. Training developers were used to to using a very ordered process to create training for a classroom setting. **End Summary** Topics: learning management system]]> lms]]> scorm lms]]> elearning]]> custom elearning solutions]]> elearning solutions]]> elearning software]]> elearning software India]]> ]]>]]> About the Author: ]]> About Author : Rajesh Rastogi has been managing and maintaining various learning management system for the past five years.
