The document provides 6 tips for effective e-Learning:
1. Get feedback from learners and use it to improve courses. Examples of feedback showed some found courses too long while others felt more empowered.
2. Include more interaction like quizzes rather than just reading. An example multiple choice quiz on Superman was included.
3. Use fun, non-work related modules to attract more learners.
4. Take advantage of the online learning community.
5. Continually promote the digital learning environment through various communications channels.
6. Maintain a positive can-do attitude.
3. 1. Get feedback (and use it!)
“It is a great learning medium and very useful to be kept aware of these
issues in our day-to-day working environment.”
“I found it turgid and verbose. It's repetitive, overlong and unnecessarily
complex.”
“It was too long, I would have rather spent the time doing my work.”
“Too long to complete especially if you read all sections before
completing.”
“I feel more empowered within my daily working life; Thank you.”

Superman is a fictional character, a comic book superhero who
appears in comic books published by DC Comics. He is widely
considered to be an American cultural icon. Created by American
writer Jerry Siegel and Canadian-born American artist Joe Shuster in
1932 while both were living in Cleveland, Ohio, and sold to Detective
Comics, Inc. (later DC Comics) in 1938, the character first appeared in
Action Comics #1 (June 1938) and subsequently appeared in various
radio serials, television programs, films, newspaper strips, and video
games. With the success of his adventures, Superman helped to create
the superhero genre and establish its primacy within the American
comic book.
