Content is no more king with sword, it is magician with wand
Posted by: pvandana

Before I talk about the new phase of learning, a brief peep into the past will explain how learning has evolved over the years. In the beginning, audience existed. But it never exercised its role. Later, Guttenberg’s invention of printing machine helped in addressing mass audience. Newspapers emerged and the audience base grew larger. This was followed by radio and television. Television still rules. But, not much learning is taking place as its space is dominated by soaps, weepy stuff and entertainment.

In addition, different media – text, audio, and video is used to make learning engaging. “All media are active metaphors in their power to translate experience into new forms” (Marshall McLuhan).That said client’s needs drive the designing of the course as eventually everything boils down to the business realities of the client. For example, if the client wants jazzy presentation, customized content is the right fit. In this case, flash developers are put to good use to come up with eye-catching interfaces building different levels of interactivity. If the content is to be presented with low level of interactivity, rapid e-learning authoring tools come handy – like Articulate, Captivate etc. Interactivity is a must and not having it could turn the audience into a passive crowd. The content should be designed to be able to hook the audience. Essentially, explorative approach, rather than explanatory, should be used.

E-learning has grown since its beginning. From a billboard like presentation, it has transformed into a movie, radio station, text encounter or a blend of all these. Game-based e-learning is now fast catching up. E-learning may be short of tactile (touch) experience. However, different techniques (scenarios, simulations, case studies and RPGs) used to present content, combined with good interface and interactivity, can lend a sense of reality to what learners learn and how the content is mediated. When the learner forgets that he is interacting with a machine, s/he is lost in the content. This leads to immersive learning. Better said, virtual reality comes close to reality.Thus, in e-learning, content is no more king with sword; content is magician with wand or fisherman with bait.

This is a great post, but how come you chose to do a “DoFollow” without a spam check? Do you not think you will get less spam with that? On our blog right now I have to use Dofollow to use AJAX on the main page otherwise it messes up the platform, I’m very upset with this resolution because I could keep all the linkjuice to myself.Anyway, I really like your comment.php and stylesheet

October 5th, 2010 at 7:02 pm

I have been searching around for this site after I heard about them from a colleague and was thrilled when I found it after searching for awhile. Being a avid blogger, I’m cheerful to see others taking initivative and contributing to the community. I would like to comment to show my approval for your blog as it is very challenging to do, and many writers do not get credit they deserve. I am sure I’ll be back and will spread the word to my friends.
