Helpful ideas. Squeaky value.

Most e-learning falls flat because it presents information and hopes something sticks. Scenario-based learning works because it gives learners a reason to need the content. Here's how to build one that works.
Learners don't want a long course. They want the point, fast. Here's how to cut the bloat, ditch the distracting links, and build only what the situation actually calls for.
The most common e-learning courses follow a simple pattern: present information, click next. That's not learning. Three design shifts move courses away from click-and-forget content toward experiences where learners actually have to think.
Making content interactive isn't the same as teaching people to make good decisions. Here's why so many e-learning courses stop short of the real work, and what it actually takes to build decision-making practice into your training.
The instinct to lock every screen in a course is understandable. If learners can skip freely, how do you know they learned anything? The answer is in the assessment, not the navigation.
Three structured approaches that move learners from information to applied skill A lot of online courses are still mostly linear. That’s fine for annual compliance content with no real performance objective attached. But if you want real behavior change, you…
Learn how to build a zoomable, interactive course using a single image and Storyline 360's zoom region feature. This tutorial walks you through the full process with a working example and free resources.
Most e-learning courses push information and call it training. The 3C model exists to fix that. It's a simple structure for building scenarios that put learners in real situations and let them practice making decisions.
Most e-learning stops at content delivery. The Tell, Show, Do model helps steer courses toward action, but the real gains come from adding deliberate practice and structured review. Each stage builds on the last, giving you a stronger framework for course design.
Here’s a common scenario: you’re ten minutes into an e-learning course. You’ve clicked through eight slides. Yet, you have no idea what you’re supposed to do differently when you’re done. The reason this happens is because most courses are explainer…
Most e-learning developers avoid gamification because it feels too complex to build quickly. But you can take a template you already have and add just a few interactive elements to change the experience entirely. Here's how a simple meet-the-team template became a decision-making challenge.
Some learners need explicit instructions. Others just want to jump in and figure it out. Here's how to decide whether to front-load instructions, deliver them at the point of need, or build them into a practice activity, and how that choice depends on your audience.
Gamification isn't just building a Jeopardy game. It's using game concepts like points, progress, and rewards to change how learners feel about a course, not just review facts at the end. Here's where to start, what you can build with variables, and a few examples to get your gears turning.
You've built a course with a dozen variables and need to test whether a specific trigger works on slide 20. That means clicking through every screen just to get there. A variables dashboard fixes that, and this post shows you how to build one.
Tired of right-clicking and saving images one at a time? Here are two quick tools that pull every image off a webpage in one shot, so you can grab on-brand visuals for your e-learning courses without the tedious clicking.
