Learn how to Develop e-Learning Tools

In this dynamic workshop, Jane Smith shows how to determine both your organization’s readiness for e-Learning and your own readiness to design and create it. The workshop will help you build the specific skill set needed to design and develop e-Learning tools. It will give you opportunities to practice and apply newly acquired knowledge and skills.

During the workshop, you will:
  • Evaluate your organization's readiness for e-Learning
  • Identify differences between writing manuals, creating classrom training, and developing e-Learning
  • Conduct a job task analysis using Jane's visual method
  • Create screen layouts for sample content
  • Write an effective interaction
  • Evaluate your own skills and readiness

Visualizing Information will help you examine the theory and practice of designing dynamic visualizations that clarify thinking, facilitate problem solving, and foster creativity. This interactive workshop teaches attendees to harness their visual and creative potential and to display this potential in the visual medium. Attendees learn to design a visual-verbal system where the strengths of one medium counter the weaknesses of the other. This complementary system integrates visual and verbal information, thereby dramatically improving the reader's understanding and retention of your technical communication.
