What is E-Learning Design for Healthcare Educators?
Online learning lets healthcare organisations train staff flexibly and at scale, but many e-learning modules are long slide decks with a quiz at the end. This course covers instructional design principles for online learning, microlearning, scripting and storyboarding, multimedia learning principles, interactive scenarios, accessible design, assessment and choosing between authoring tools and learning platforms.
