About this project

ared_lowres.jpg

Many registered training organisations and enterprises do not have the capacity to create their own educationally sound e-learning resources. This project aims to research, define and develop applications for rapid e-learning development. The project will produce ready-made, re-usable interactions that can be used by developers to generate high quality, cost effective e-learning resources.

Who is it for?

This project will be of interest to:

  • e-learning resource developers
  • managers of e-learning resource development organisations and departments.

The benefits of providing ready-made, reusable interactions is that individual teams engaged in e-learning development would be able to apply these assets with a reduced overhead in design and development. This would assist experienced teams to develop resources more quickly, and less experienced teams to deliver content that may have normally been outside their skills or available resources.

Who developed the project?

This project was developed by Holmesglen Institute of TAFE, Victoria.
