Instructional Design

eLearning Corner uses instructional-design best practices, tempered with years of feedback from students. We think the retention points covered in Made to Stick by Chip and Dean Heath describe our approach to eLearning well:

• Credible: A current andrelevant news story appears in each module.
• Concrete: Workplace examples and workplace quiz questions map the topic to the employee environment.
• Unexpected: A "Did you know" counter-intuitive point occurs in each module.
• Simple: We avoid unnecessary words when making a point. Our editors keep language simple and clear.
• Conversational: Course content uses a conversational tone to enhance learning.
• Stories: Each course module includes current events relevant to IT Security.
• Relevant illustrations: The course messages are bonded with relevant images.

These methods result in longer retention and enhanced IT Security Awareness, bringing about positive behavioral change.
