Dear managers, we know that creating a module is not an easy task we ask you to do: you have to think about resources, tasks, dates... all while making the experience simple for the participant ๐
The very soul of the module is the fact that the participant is moving into action by submitting deliverables! Here are a few tips to make the modules more readable and encourage participants to submit deliverables:
Tip nยฐ1
Use short text field for answers that require a few words maximum.
Tip nยฐ2
Use long text field for answers that require sentences or a longer text than short text field.
Tip nยฐ3
If the required answer is long (half a page or more), use an Upload file field so that the participant can develop his/her answer and upload the prefered format (PDF, PPT,...)
Tip nยฐ4
Group several fields in the same task if you think they belong to the same "family of task".
Nb: One field = One deliverable
Tip nยฐ5
If you find that your module has too many tasks, try turning that "big" module into two smaller ones!
Tip nยฐ6
Line up your tasks and modules from simple to complex! This will let participants think that they are making great strides!
Tip nยฐ7
For each module where there is a main resource (video, podcast, ...), we recommend you to create a task "Watch the video " / "Listen to the podcast". This way, the participant will feel more engaged and will start the program/module smoothly!
Tip nยฐ8
Remember, the course must be practical and clear for the participants. Try to maximize the explanations for each requested deliverable!
