What do e-learners think about the e-learning courses they have taken?
How do their learning styles affect their requirements from e-learning?
How do e-learners adapt to the new medium, and what does the more sophisticated user require from content and technology?
Straits Knowledge has just completed a groundbreaking 37 page report surveying a wide range of e-learners in Singapore, on their perceptions and requirements.
The study links growing experience with e-learning to an increasingly sophisticated appetite for e-learning, but also suggests there are very strong design implications for enabling continued adoption by e-learning novices.
Elearning Effectiveness from the Learner’s Point of View details how effective learners think their courses were, what outcomes they expected, and what kinds of content and activity design they liked most. It will be useful both for organizations planning an e-learning implementation as well as elearning vendors.
Key findings include:
- Most e-learners think their courses were effective, though fewer e-learners say they like it without qualification
- Only experienced e-learners are willing to embrace complex, sophisticated content design
- Preferences for the time and place of e-learning study change significantly as learners grow accustomed to it
- There is a strong appreciation of the self-paced, self-contained
