The Process of eLearning Part 1
Creating effective eLearning can be a complex and daunting process, especially for those new to it. This series will guide you through each phase, providing clarity on what to expect and how we at Allegro Media Design can support you at every step.
Popular eLearning Methodologies
Before diving into the process, it’s essential to understand the methodologies that guide eLearning development. There are three widely-used approaches:
ADDIE Model
This traditional model stands for Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. It provides a structured framework for creating eLearning courses, ensuring each phase is thoroughly addressed (eLearning Learning).
SAM Model (Successive Approximation Model)
SAM focuses on iterative development, involving rapid prototyping and continuous feedback. This model is ideal for projects that require flexibility and frequent revisions (Skillshub.com).
Agile Learning Design
Inspired by Agile software development, this methodology emphasizes collaboration, flexibility, and incremental progress. It’s perfect for dynamic environments where requirements may evolve (SHIFT | Home).
At Allegro, we blend these frameworks to create our own process that is flexible to the needs of each of our diverse clients.
The eLearning Development Process
The eLearning development process involves a few crucial steps:
1) Analysis
We will work with your team or project managers and SMEs to analyze the needs and audience for your eLearning project.
2) Design
The Design phase is when we nail down what content will be in your course. We create storyboards and make as many changes as needed to finalize the content.
3) Development
Our developers then work their magic to create a beautiful course with your content. Clients have the chance to review the look and feel and functionality of the course.
4) Implementation / Evaluation
Finally, we deliver a SCORM file for your Learning Management team to upload to your internal LMS. Your course is now ready for action!
We will guide you through each of these steps, making the process feel as smooth and seamless as possible. Some clients use our services for every step, and some come to us with the Analysis and Design phase already done. Whatever your needs are, we are here to deliver eLearning course(s) that make a lasting impact on your business.
