How interactive video improve your e-training
For over a decade, the use of video for training has been well established. The application of videos for training has become better with the advent of mobile learning and micro learning.
Even with the well-known benefits of video-based learning, it also has numerous drawbacks.
The drawbacks of video-based learning include the forgetting curve, passivity, and ineffective tracking measures. In addition, it may not be suitable for higher cognition levels.
However, interactive video-based learning builds on the success of video-based learning and eliminates the limitations listed above. This article takes a detailed look at various ways of applying interactive video-based learning to improve training's impact.
1) How interactive video-based learning builds on video-based learning
Some of the ways through which interactive video-based learning eliminates the shortcomings of video-based learning includes the following:
Higher level of engagement: Instead of the passive videos in regular video-based learning, interactive video-based learning gives room for a high level of engagement. Interaction tools can be easily applied to improve the level of engagement. These interactions tools include Hot spots and Click to Reveal.
Track learners progress: With interactive video-based learning, learners progress can be tracked easily through the use of tools like end-of-video assessments and quizzes.
Safe environment for kids: Interactive video-based learning provides a safe environment for students to learn. This environment can be created with branching pathways that allow learners to understand the consequences of their actions and choices.
2) Applications of interactive video-based learning
Interactive video-based learning can be applied in different forms, especially in corporate training. It can be applied in formal and informal learning as well as for performance support/ just-in-time learning.
At The Learning Lab, we are experts in the development of interactive video-based learning. We apply strategies such as the curation of videos from YouTube and further customization of the videos according to the needs of the client.
We also create microlearning videos that serve as performance supports within employees' workflows. In addition, we create customized learning plans according to the preferences of the learner and a comprehensive learning resource.
3) Features of our interactive video framework.
At The Learning Lab, our Interactive video-based learning frameworks are aimed at empowering brands, organizations, and individuals to track and enjoy the benefits of this improved form of learning.
Our service provides users with a wide range of frameworks to create engaging learning content. We also have the right tools to track learners’ knowledge, as well as performance and progress.
Here are some specific features of our video framework.
Multiple device support: Our framework works with different types of devices, including smartphones, laptops, desktops, and tablets.
Knowledge checks and interactions: Interactions and knowledge checks are important for improving engagement and monitoring the progress of learners. Knowledge checks and interactions abound on our framework. Users get a variety of tools to improve the engagement level of their content. They include dropdown, hotspots, drag and drop, and single choice assessments.
Tin Can and SCROM support: We offer Tin Can and SCROM support, as well as compatibility with LRS/LMS.
Performance indicator: This is adapted to give a clear indication of learners’ progress. Our framework has a visual indicator for this purpose.
Learner analytics: We equip users to identify study patterns in learners' activities. We empower users with detailed reports and analysis of learners' patterns.
Ease of use: We believe that ease of use is a major indication of the efficiency of any tool. With our framework, users can easily create interactive video-based learning content and convert traditional videos to interactive learning videos.
