Considering authoring tools for digital learning

Terry Greene and Dingwall Jr

Chapter 5 in How to Use Digital Learning with Confidence and Creativity, 2024, pp 40-48 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Online and distance learning, historically, has been a great place to be left all alone while trying to learn something. Everyone needs some alone time; some more than others. eLearning authoring tools are a subset of digital learning tools designed to remove our real-time selves and others from the equation. Once you cook up a nice self-paced experience using these tools, one that can personalize the level of difficulty and provide some prefabricated feedback, who needs you, the teacher, anyway? With you out of the equation, it’s just the learner vs. the content, mano a mano. In this chapter, we will work through a decision-making process to decide if and when it might actually be a good time to create some lonely learning, considerations for supporting learners, and how you might find some inspiration out there to get you started.
