Using game mechanics like goals, feedback, and rewards can increase engagement in eLearning by motivating learners in similar ways as video games. Gamification works best when the game elements directly support learning objectives. Designers should provide guidance to help learners progress towards goals and give frequent feedback to maintain engagement through rewarding feelings of accomplishment. Testing assumptions early is important to improve the design.

Steve Vosloo

Kusasa is an open-source e-learning initiative that uses illustrated characters and comics to develop analytical thinking skills in South African learners. The initiative aims to address the shortage of math and science teachers by facilitating exploration and creation through a programming environment. It uses characters to role model positive behaviors, attitudes and thinking styles to learners. Characters help engage learners of different abilities and create an emotional connection. The challenges are that illustrated comics require significant time and resources to develop while avoiding being too didactic.

Campus Sonar

How higher education engages with alumni is changing as more and more of our conversations occur online. While your alumni may not fill out career update forms or respond to your emails, they are celebrating their accomplishments on social media and would certainly appreciate a personalized response from their alma matter. Beyond engagement, influencers can play an important role in advancement, but you need to know how to find them. In this session, you'll learn how to find and analyze online conversations to identify engagement opportunities as well as strategic influencers for your institution (not just online celebrities). We'll also review metrics that can be used to determine influence (spoiler alert: it's more than followers). In this presentation, Liz shares case studies and best practices for campus influencer collaboration.

When we move from a conformance mindset to a collaboration mindset, we can find ourselves in the position to do our best work—work our clients will love. What you’ll learn: • How to move from a conformance to a collaboration mindset. • Using workshop techniques (like job stories, pair writing, mad libs, and more) in meeting settings. • How to uncover the real problems your clients are facing, and solve them—together.

Attracting & Retaining Top Talent: Millennials In the Workplace

McKonly & Asbury, LLP

This webinar will be hosted by McKonly & Asbury Human Resources Director, Suzanne Sentman, and Human Resources Coordinator, Holly Kressler. Millennials, the cohort of Americans born between 1980 and the mid-2000s, now surpass Baby Boomers as the largest living U.S. generation. In 2013, they represented one-third of the total U.S population and by 2020, they are expected to make up half of the workforce. How are employers responding to this employee population shift? This webinar will explore the defining characteristics of the Millennial generation and how companies can utilize this information to successfully attract, recruit, and retain these employees. As employers create a culture that supports this generation’s need and desire for career growth and advancement, best practices will be examined in areas such as recruiting, onboarding, training, and performance management.

Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data Warehouse

Federico Razzoli

Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you. A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services. But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts. We will discuss these topics: - How to gather information about a business; - Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities; - Dimensions and facts; - Setting a table granularity; - Types of facts; - Types of dimensions; - Snowflakes and how to avoid them; - Expanding existing dimensions and facts.

In this example, this character is a knowledgeable company spokesperson orienting new employees to the products offered and company history. Although not dressed in medical scrubs, he comes across as an authority on medical devices and conditions. This demo was produced by our eLearning partner w/ Slash who creates immersive eLearning for a variety of companies. One is Medtronic who makes medical devices.
