203 Creating Interactive Course Applications at Scale

1:00 PM - 2:00 PM Wednesday, June 10

Instructional Design

409

For instructional designers who need to create interactive content that can be consumed across a variety of devices, especially mobile, the availability of suitable technologies proves problematic. Many educational technologies have a tendency to be overly simplistic and lack the robustness found in their commercial counterparts. But despite the simplicity of these tools, faculty often tends to revert to novice status when interacting with technology. 

In this session you will explore a case study in which the American Public University System developed an enterprise-level solution that allowed faculty and designers to create high-impact, interactive course apps through a process with a very low learning curve. You will learn methods for leveraging an institutional CMS, in conjunction with the digital publishing suite, to create high-quality, aesthetically rich course applications, with fully integrated analytics. You will discuss technical specifications, design considerations, deployment strategies, and analytics integration. 

In this session, you will learn:

  • How to deliver rich mobile experience at scale
  • How enterprise workflows facilitate large-scale mobile content development
  • From use cases around content authoring for mobile learning content
  • The value of post-hoc learning analytics integration into mobile applications 

Audience:
Novice to advanced designers, developers, project managers, managers, and directors. 

Technology discussed in this session:
iOS and Android mobile devices, desktop rendering of applications, Adobe Experience Manager, Digital Publishing Suite, Site Catalyst Analytics.
