The Weight of Learning Designs

I have learned today that most designs applied in a learning management system has valuable connection to those learners who know in themselves that they can succeed at the modules. Since online learning has its core foundation on a technology, it really is tempting to solely rely on the technology to support the requisites of the learner. However this point can be argued well by the perspective that technology can only assist the learner if the design and the flow of the course is informative, comprehensive, and debatably, in favor of the learning type of the students.

If one were to look at the different issues and barriers that learners experience in a learning management system like the innate academic skills, organizational support, technical abilities and the motivation of the learner, we find that these systems and instructional designs have a great deal of influence on the learner. Thus, the biggest problem and as well as the best solution is finding an instructional design that will fit the general type of learner.

In reality, there is no course that fits perfectly by general students since there will always be a hindrance or separate factor apart from the learning course that would influence their performance. It would also be the key to numerous other issues in the elearning industry to find out what designs are easy to take on as an academic course and which are not. Pre-assessment of an e-course maybe called however this method will take much time and effort on the developers’ part. Regardless, if electronic learning courses are to succeed and surpass the learning courses from the typical classroom setting, then this issues would have to be addressed.

It also might be that another solution to this problem is the inclusion of a human factor. As of today this is already employed where online tutoring is backed by electronic learning courses which can actually stand up by itself anyway.

The bottom line is that the design of the course system should be carefully identified and pre-tested with as a means of improving and supporting the human factors that the learning system can not measure accurately as of now.
