4 Examples of Courses with Video That Reel Learners In

There’s an old writing adage that says Show, don’t tell. The same advice could be applied to e-learning. For example, most learners would prefer to watch how a complex system works rather than read bullet points off a slide and try to visualize it themselves.

In your online courses, you have the opportunity to present video and other media in creative ways. Gone are the days of the TV trolley and awkward, distorted VHS videos! Here are a few examples of e-learning featuring videos from the E-Learning Heroes community to spark your creativity.
