Rapid e-Learning : The Emperor’s New Clothes? Fast, Faster, Supersonic The generators take content developed in PowerPoint and allow you to generate Flash based courses. Audio, video, animations, This year’s catchphrase is undoubtedly quizzes and learning games can all be rapid e-learning. And, it seems, the faster included. Many of these tools come with pre- the better. Everywhere you look, gurus pop built components such as multiple choice up to tell you about the latest process and quizzes, drag-and-drop interactions and so newest tools, all designed to help you to on. They usually provide the code to allow you build e-learning at the speed of light. to integrate your e-learning with your SCORM compliant Learning Management System. The idea of rapid e-learning is that if you The generators, however, can be limited in can put the development tools in the hands what you can do beyond the pre-defined of the Subject Matter Expert, you can save components and can restrict your flexibility yourself time and money. The tools are in when it comes to the look and feel.

Many of the tools available content is too much to ask of an SME and can be used to build sophisticated e-learning provides them with little or no ownership courses. In my own organisation, we have built of the content.

A mix of skills is required, including instructional design and I believe that what Maise, Ward and other graphical design.

This is far from the truth – the ID is one of the First, although many of the rapid e-learning tools most important roles in any learning project and are easy to use, if you don’t use a product for this is not a skill that is easily or quickly mastered. some time, it’s easy to forget how to make the Asking an SME to master all of these skills as well most of it. as learning a development tool – in addition to performing their day job – is a lot to ask!

If you already question of time. Far from adding pressure to have content in PowerPoint or can convince the SME, we find that SMEs prefer to provide your SMEs to produce this, if your training Instructional Designers with a ‘brain dump’ and professionals can repurpose the content, if then to work collaboratively (often face- to-face) your Graphic Designers can build the assets, to review and sign off content.

The Emperor’s new
clothes? Right about now you are probably asking “where’s the value?” If you have to employ all these people to build e-learning courses, wouldn’t it be better to outsource the project? Our experience shows that rapid e-learning adds value to organisations that have thought through the points mentioned above. Recurring themes in organisations that are successful are: They build small teams that handle the actual building of the content. As these teams work on many courses, they become experts in the use of the rapid e-learning tools. Because of the nature of the tools, these individuals can be training professionals rather than software developers. This allows them to provide instructional design support as well. They create strategic relationships with third party vendors who can provide services on an ad hoc basis. These vendors often have expertise in using the e-learning tools and have Instructional Designers and Graphic Designers at their disposal. They take a hybrid approach to content creation. Some content is created internally, other content is developed by third parties – a process for making these choices is usually also in place. So is rapid e-learning the Emperor’s new clothes? Only if you read what it says on the box and, against your better instincts, believe it all to be true! 6 Advance, © Saffron Interactive 2007
