Description
Course planning and creation is an art that requires a structured approach from start to finish. The best course of action is to start generating a list of potential topics based on the person’s skill set. Quantifiable market research must be performed to measure demand for prioritized ideas to ensure the effort is worth it. Several spreadsheets are made available to use as guides to follow along with the course material.
Once the idea is chosen attention should be focused on defining a cohesive plan to link target audience, learning objectives, and course content, which might require trial and error. Content creation should be based on covering the basics first to ensure the student assimilates the information before moving on to more complex ideas, like setting bricks to build a wall. The use of case studies is recommended to illustrate the whole process being taught to clarify doubts that may come up along the way.
Everything can be created using free and low cost tools. There’s no need to be an expert in graphic design or video recording to produce a high quality product.
The eLearning industry is growing at a fast pace because people want to acquire new skills online. This provides opportunity for entrepreneurs to create passive income for years to come.
