Whether you are designing an eLearning course or an instructor-led session, your solution will likely include a series of carefully-planned learning interactions.
These interactions should be closely tied to one of your instructional objectives: what learners should know, do, or believe after completing the activity. Jennifer Bertram I interviewed our Manager of Instructional Design, Jennifer Bertram, to learn more about what goes in to creating learning interactions. Our discussion focused almost exclusively on eLearning, as developing varied and effective interactions that work within a course can be quite the elusive task for would-be designers.
Jennifer had some great thoughts on how to get started with designing learning interactions, as well as suggestions on types of learning activities to consider. The Challenge: When designing interactions for eLearning, you are already at a bit of a disadvantage. 4 Steps to Creating a Portfolio of your eLearning Projects. This post provides four quick steps on how to create a winning eLearning portfolio.

One of the main concepts that leads to successful e-Learning course design is Information Chunking.
But what is chunking? Why is it embedded in the world of instructional design? And what kind of chunking strategies can an instructional designer use to enhance learning? Content chunking refers to the strategy of making a more efficient use of our short-term memory by organizing and grouping various pieces of information together. When information is chunked into groups, the brain can process them easier and faster, because our working memory can hold a limited amount of data at the same time. DESCUBRE LAS 10 TAXONOMÍAS TPACK.

Sometimes the text may even be accompanied by a picture or some audio. Whatever the content, you find yourself hitting the “next” arrow as quickly as possible to avoid falling asleep entirely. Before entering the training and development field, I can tell you that this was something I had come to expect when I sat down for on-the-job training. However, I can see now that most instructional designers in the field are transitioning away from using a series of PowerPoint slides with bullet points and trying to find ways to add a level of interactivity to their learning solutions.
Interactivity is being discussed with words like “engagement” and “motivation.” Interactions don’t have to be elaborate to be effective I started my career working for animation and video game companies, so when I moved into training, I had preconceived notions about the difficulty of creating interactive content.
