E-Learning Sample Screenshots

The 22 screenshots in this gallery, illustrate some of the guidelines and principles we apply when developing e-learning. This rst example shows two learning agents (or avatars). Research has identied they promote effective learning.

Learning agents (or avatars) help make learning memorable.

Personalising content through use of characters or real-life personalities signicantly improves motivation and learning.

Scenario-based learning successfully engages and motivates.

Short case studies are meaningful and memorable challenge activities, helping bring learning points to life.

Simple reective exercises make learning memorable and encourage embedding and transfer of learning.

Scenario-based learning with a meaningful challenge, motivating activities and memorable feedback is highly effective for skills-based learning.
