Development teams
Combined skills for quality products
Producing high quality interactive materials for e-learning is an expensive and specialised undertaking which typically involves these components:
- applying a systematic project management approach to the development, with milestones for deliverable and budget controls, and version control of the complex products
- forming a development team, with skills in learning design (or instructional design), media production, multimedia development, programming, web design, graphic design and layout, as well as professional proofing and editing
- making appropriate workflow arrangements with subject matter experts to prepare or write the content
- using one or more authoring tools to combine the multimedia components into a learning sequence
- integrating strategies for expert review and user testing of the materials to ensure relevance, usability and effectiveness
- applying agreed technical standards to the products to ensure they will work with the intended delivery system.
