Elearning In Motion: Changing eLearning to improve minds, one learner at a time

We are Elearning In Motion because eLearning is in continuous a change. We use principles of instructional design to create products that promote learning and change behavior. We introduce sound UX/UI practices to make engaging experiences for learners and customers. We bring in the latest technology available for rapid eLearning development and, along with the power of multimedia, we produce training that elevates learners towards achieving their personal goals, this way we are changing e-Learning to improve minds, one person at a time.

My Thoughts on the Lessons Learned from Implementing eLearning to Cope with the COVID-19 Pandemic

I was there during the start, and later the peak, of the pandemic (2020). Every school, university, or educational institution tried to implement eLearning tools and virtual classrooms in a rush, with very little planning. Some were prepared, others not so much. If it was difficult for a higher education setting, I cannot begin to imagine how it was for elementary, middle, and high schools.

Now we know the effects of this virtual, online, remote education on students (not many refer to this modality as eLearning.) It is not pretty: many students fell behind in reading, mathematics, and sciences, at all levels. But we have to remember that many of these schools and universities were not prepared for such an event. I am not only talking about technology. Many teachers, instructors, professors, administrators, and students were not ready either.

But there is hope. It seems eLearning has come here to stay and many schools and educational institutions are using these tools to improve their education offerings. Students will need some time to recover from this setback. There are some positive things from this pandemic, besides to what I just mentioned: Who would have thougth you can attend major conferences through virtual sessions? Next time (hopefully, not a pandemic), we will be ready.
