Here are a few aspects to consider but you will be able to come up with much more !
Creating the best content
People learn differently
Everyone is different, with some people being visual learners, while others auditory learners. Remember to include different components to your eCourse to cater for everyone.
Quizzes are a great way to check how successfully people have learnt, and are also fun too !
Learn from others
There are lots of ways to create a successful eCourse and so why not start by seeing how others have done things. Take those aspects you think work well and leave out the others.
Don’t re-invent the broken wheel !
Innovate
Stand out from the crowd. Don’t be afraid to try something new.
People often respond to something different and will probably relish the opportunity to provide feedback to you.
Why not try animation, or mime !
Use simple and clear messages
It’s easy to put too much information into an eCourse, which can lead to the learner getting lost.
Think about separating a big topic into more than one eCourse, with each having clear aims and objectives.
Keep things simple with clear messages.
Everyone likes bright colours !
Remember to create interesting and relevant eCourse content, but also to keep it visually appealing. Not everyone is a visual learner but no-one likes a dull presentation !
Engage with social media
Social media is ever more important and people use it to find out what they are missing out on.
Use it to your advantage and post links to your eCourse on your social media. You can also use your eCourses to drive traffic to your social media platforms so it is a two-way street.
If you don’t have social media accounts, then now is a great time to start. Create them to enable your learners to discuss your eCourse and for you and others to be able to answer any questions easily.
Make the most of existing course material you may have, or delight in creating a new course for eager learners
Creating an eCourse is only the first step. After your hard work you want learners to enjoy it. Use social media to tell people about your eCourse and drive traffic to it.
