Stages of E-Learning Design

Visible to anyone in the world

I believe the provenance of this blog post it my analysis of the stages of e-learning design taught during the MAODE, modelled on the OU's approach and based on Gilly Salmon's 'five steps' of e-tivities. Though EMA suggests it was part of an 'End of Module Assessment'. It looks handy so I want to know I have it somewhere!

What you should do (the corporate perspective):

Identify a clear business problem or opportunity to which e-learning can be effectively applied.

Choose the provider based on two things:

  1. their clear solution to the business need

  2. a means of measuring the value that solution delivers

Moderate/Mediate the ice-breaker. Even if the students know each other, the LT will be new to them, and possibly the room too. Support individual students to locate, grab and load an image. Add captions and tags.

Set this as an assignment.


Give grade and feedback. Or quiz them on it at next session. 

Help them put these thoughts/memories down somewhere in words or with visuals. (This can be preparation for adding something to the blog later on).

Discover and link to  content related blogs. Save the links to these. Add a note on them and maybe do a screengrab.
