Online Events Archive

Online Forums 2012 - February 24, 2012

Many people think that eLearning is boring. Unfortunately, these people are often correct. So how do you create eLearning that’s not only not boring, but that learners will immediately recognize as something different and interesting?

Participants in this session will learn a whole new way to deliver eLearning content: comics. You’ll explore why comic strips are inherently more interesting to learners and why learners eagerly return to comics-based eLearning. You’ll also learn how to create your own comic strips that engage learners, maximize knowledge retention, and bring life and laughter to the perceived boredom of eLearning.

In this session, you will learn:

• The best way to start a comic strip
• How to get the appropriate content into the strip
• How to keep learners engaged
• How to increase learners’ knowledge retention
• Tips on color and shape
• Tips on tools and resources
