Initiating a Learning Content Strategy |
|
|
SCENARIO: A training manager within a large company had led the selection and implementation of an enterprise e-learning platform three years ago. The product was being upgraded so that it could support a learning object approach based on interoperability standards. The manager wanted to make use of these new capabilities. To do this, her team needed to understand how to create content in the proper way. The process also needed to be understood and accepted by her counterparts within individual business units, some of which relied on their own technology. Finally, upper management had to be convinced of the benefits of a learning content strategy.
To get started, the training manager wanted help in creating internal design documents and in raising awareness about new capabilities. SOLUTION: Eduworks spent two days on-site producing a draft design document for creating and deploying standards-based learning objects with the company's existing technologies. Eduworks followed this with a full-day workshop on learning technology, products, standards, learning objects, design workflows and the newly created design guidelines. RESULT: A concrete design document, a well-received workshop and continuing conversations within the company. |
