What is the goal of learning and e-learning?<\/em><\/strong> To create relatively permanent change in a person’s mind and\/or behavior so that their performance improves in a desired direction.<\/p>\n

What changes internally as the person learns?<\/strong><\/em> Neurons in the brain actually grow toward each other to create new circuitry, representing the new learning. At the tip of the neurons, the neuro-transmitter chemicals change so that the electrical activity in the learning circuit is faciliated. This translates into effective learning, remembering and performance improvement.<\/p>\n

How to use e-Learning to create those changes in the brain and subsequent changes in the mind and behavior, resulting in performance improvement? <\/em><\/strong>In order to create the required changes in the relatively permanent long-term store or memory of the brain, new information has to move from short-term store or memory into the long-term store. That process of successful movement from short-term to long-term store is called ENCODING.<\/p>\n

Encoding takes time,?sometimes up to three weeks. To facilitate the encoding process, consider the following factors:<\/p>\n

1. Practice, practice and more practice keeps the new learning in a temporary store while the new neural coding representing the learning is developing.<\/p>\n

2. Breaking learning down into tiny steps helps the learning process.<\/p>\n

3. Organizing the material within a framework accelerates encoding.<\/p>\n

4. Stories that arouse emotions facilitate the encoding process.<\/p>\n

5. Any type of active learning such as: rewriting the material in your own words, choosing the right answer, assessing? yourself regarding the material, answering questions and writing examples all help the encoding process.<\/p>\n

The PeakSkills e-Learning Development Platform is an e-Learning Development application and LMS that allows the e-Learning Developer to easily incorporate the above factors into e-Learning eCourses.<\/p>\n

If you would like to learn more about our e-Learning Development Platform, including our LMS, authoring tools, and eCourses,?as well as our e Learning Certification course, please contact me, Diane Kramer, Ph.D., at dkramer@peakskillslearning.com<\/a> or 631-630-0570.<\/p>\n
