How to collect and organize your elearning content
- Before you jump in and start developing your e-learning course, you need to collect and organize the content you want to include. Now how you go about doing this depends on the topic of your e-learning course. But in my experience, there are four surefire ways that work best. First, spend some time talking to your subject matter experts. They're the ones who will be able to provide you the most detailed information. Second, spend some time talking with those employees who have already mastered the knowledge, tasks, or behaviors you're teaching. They can give you good insights into the challenges they experienced and how they overcame them. Trust me, these bits of knowledge are great to build into your e-learning course. And third, review any company policies, best practices, or procedures if they exist. This will help you make sure your e-learning course is teaching the things the way the company expects them to be completed. All right, so after you've collected all of your e-learning content, your fourth and final step is to organize it. Now it's really easy to become overwhelmed with everything you've collected along the way. And the best way to organize your content is to separate what is nice to know versus what is must-know. Ask yourself, "Will my learners be unable to complete "the desired task if they don't get this information?" And if the answer's no, then it's probably not something you need to include in your e-learning course. Taking the time to collect and organize your e-learning content will help you provide the most critical information to your learners.
