Imagine what we could accomplish…

It was interesting yesterday to have a conversation with a few of my coworkers about how much we loved to facilitate training sessions with the volunteers that work at our hospital. Our volunteer membership is around 700 people, that choose to be here on a weekly basis. They are here because they love the facility, […]

LMS Update and How My Organization Has Adapted to Online Learning

Our LMS implementation has been painful. Our nurse educators are keen to get everything they have been doing in classes or have access to in PowerPoint up onto the system. Not the best idea. So I’m slowly taking a topic at a time (mostly what is being driven by Ministry mandatory training first) and creating […]

Finally some nice feedback

After months and months of hard work slaving over the implementation of our LMS system. Then many long painstaking hours and overtime hours to get our mandatory core curriculum courses created.

Reusability – Too much of a good thing?

Swapping Bullet Pts for a HotSpot Series of Questions (#Articulate)

Navigating an Online Course ( #Articulate Engage Interaction)

Recently while looking at some examples of various elearning courses I decided that my “help” section of my own course was incredibly too long and perhaps annoying for learners. One example I saw had a quick one screen shot that people could click around. I decided I needed something similar to this, but bearing in […]
