Create an eLearning Module

In this eLearning module, I considered managers who were not familiar with mentoring being used as a tool to increase motivation, and productivity, and set the employees up for success. I chose to use interactive infographics throughout my presentation to represent the empathetic process. Using iSpring Suite, I was able to add quizzes and videos to the module. These were short so as to keep the learner’s attention but were not too overwhelming to be ignored. I was also able to use functions in this app that allowed me to link pictures to slides, which allowed the learner an option to view or proceed with the information being offered. Using Canva, I was able to create infographics that added an outside element and also allowed the student to have a visual of instructions and information provided in the module and video. These elements were chosen to help your users pay attention to the most critical aspects of the learning. I chose to use a great variety of multimedia learning principles to ensure that all learners had the mode and format that would allow them success.
