Each week our very own David Anderson shares a new theme to inspire you to stretch your creative muscles. These weekly challenges are a fun and rewarding way to learn new skills, share your work, build your presence in the E-Learning Heroes community, and connect with (and learn from) fellow e-learning pros from all over the globe.
It’s always exciting to see how creative our community is and how each designer’s individual style and personality shines through their work. So, to celebrate your hard work once more, we’ve rounded up the most popular E-Learning Challenges of 2019 (including a few blasts from the past that caught a second wind). Take a look!
