Welcome to the Treasure Trove of Awesome eLearning. Trove examples demonstrate various ways the principles in the book Rethinking eLearning can be applied. They are organized by principle(s) demonstrated.
“In this example, learners must sort shoe boxes following a specific process. As they master the basics, each subsequent round becomes more challenging. This mirrors video game design with clear rules grounded in a real-world scenario.” Allen Interactions Inc.
“In this short simulation about preventing hostile robbery, learners take on a role and make decisions in a simple, interactive world that looks and feels like real life. Everyday choices and high-stakes moments are mixed together, just like they are on the job.” Clark Aldrich Designs
“This simulation showcases intrinsic gamification by integrating learning into a decision-driven experience that mirrors real-world challenges.” Clark Aldrich Designs
“In this example, a large financial institution wanted to be sure ex-military candidates for hire were properly interviewed and evaluated.” Allen Interactions Inc.
“Candidates interested in becoming a beauty consultant and setting up their own business to market May Kay Cosmetics often have reservations and even fears about their ability to perform all the required tasks well.” Allen Interactions Inc.
“The Prompt Engineering course offers a compelling glimpse into the future of AI-enabled learning. It starts with introducing learners to the fundamentals of prompt engineering and gradually integrates AI to provide personalized, context-aware feedback through reflection questions.” Artha Learning
“This compliance course incorporates immersive learning techniques where learners participate in a story involving two companies collaborating on the same project.” ELB Learning
“In this simulation the learner plays the role of a chief priorities officer, emphasizing the importance of making decisions based on available resources and priorities.” ELB Learning
“This Nova Space example asks learners to launch a satellite into orbit. Using the specially built simulation, learners experiment with making critical decisions regarding geographical launch locations to selecting an appropriate rocket and load.” Allen Interactions Inc.
“Achieving performance, confidence, and joy through gamified elearning involves translating real-world steps into engaging simulations that demonstrate how concepts work, with an emphasis on where errors are more likely to occur.” Clark Aldrich Designs
“In a program we created, students are initially asked about their strengths, weaknesses, and aspirations as instructional designers through an infographic-building interface called the Constellation. A unique collection of resources and instruction tailored to specific learner characteristics along with ways to measure their success. ” Allen Interactions Inc.
“This scenario-driven video role-play on ethical conduct in schools was for teachers and staff. Its engaging approach of knowledge application replaced an insufficient traditional multiple-choice test.” Allen Interactions Inc.
