Creating an eLearning game can be a bit of a roller coaster ride with the many variables to consider for best practice eLearning, coupled with the complexities of a game design. Now let’s make the ride a bit more exhilarating by coaching a client that is used to bullet-point type eLearning through the process. It’s a bit like taking the Big Hill without a restraint. In this session, Joann will step you through key takeaways (the good and the not so pretty) during discovery, design, development, and the learning transfer evaluation implemented for a blended solution that included a highly engaging game where the learner works through the eight hiring stages to offer the job to the best candidate – but will the candidate accept the offer?
