Your phone is smart. Is your e-learning smart too?


With a “smart” phone in almost every corporate hand; it’s time we make our learning modules smarter too!
Here are 5 things that you can do to make the e-learning experience truly sMart (with a dash of “M” to it)!
1. Make it social!
  • Mobile devises are powerful modes of social communication. They open up a completely new dimension to social learning. (you are seeing this post on the LI blog!...truly e-social; aren't we? ) 
2. Break the course into byte sized modules
  • Most people will engage with your course “on-the-go” using a mobile devise. You don't want to leave them hanging!
3. Build a “suspense” or curiosity element at the end of each module
  • More curious the learner, more the desire to learn. 
4. Use gamification elements to induce competition and collaboration
  • We play mobile games with a lot of passion. Gamifying an m-learning course will give us a chance to learn something good while at play! 
5. Make it responsive
  • Have an option to shift from a computer to a mobile and vice-versa. Remember-technology should be an enabler and not a disabler!
