FAQ
How much multimedia should an eLearning course contain?
The answer will depend on what you want. If you're looking for quick information delivery, then less is likely to be the best. But if your goal is to provide training that will teach people how to do something then less may be more.
The key thing is that you need to know what you want to achieve from your eLearning course. You also need to understand what your learners expect from your course. This will help you ensure you have sufficient content to meet your goals.
Let's take, for instance:
If you want to teach people about using Microsoft Word, then it would be best to include lots of examples of text documents. If you are trying to teach people Excel, however, they will need to see many different types.
You should also consider whether images or video are best to illustrate concepts.
Video is great at showing how to do something, but not so well for explaining complex topics. It can also be expensive to produce. Although images are easier to create, they don't have the same emotional impact of a video.
So, the bottom line is this - you need to think carefully about what you want to achieve before designing your eLearning course.
How do I pick the best eLearning platform for me?
