Many e-Learners usually complain: "I am lost in so much content." e-Learning programs are just too long and too hard for learners to rapidly grasp or instantly get a gist of the ideas. This is where "Interactive Knowledge Maps" work best. Knowledge Maps help online learners obtain a bird’s-eye view – a view of the forest and not the trees. "These models help e-learning developers visualize how to design and approach mapping of complex information into simplified overviews, according to Ray Jimenez, PhD, Chief Learning Architect for Vignettes for Training, Inc.
These are the models:
o Process Flow
o Organizational Relationships
o Content Overviews
To preview the models visit this link and click "Knowledge Maps."
e-Learning Developers will benefit from the models in:
o Rapid e-Learning content production
o Web-based training design
o Instructional design for e-Learning
Using Knowledge Maps in e-Learning design and development is one of the many
topics that Ray Jimenez, PhD will cover in his workshops on "3-Minute & Rapid e-Learning" to be held in Chicago, IL and Pasadena/Los Angeles,CA on December 3 and 7, 2007. To learn more, visit:
