Custom Accounts and Service Order (Software) Training using Captivate - A Case StudyOne of our clients, a leading IP-based managed services provider that delivers integrated packages of communications and IT services to more than 38,500 small businesses throughout the United States, approached us to develop an online course for their customers on how to use their software tools. We developed the course using a Watch, Try, Do (WTD) approach. The instructional strategy followed was to first show the operations, and then invite learners to try and perform the required operations with some guidance and finally, enable them to try the operations all by themselves. This approach provided a smooth transition in learning - from watching, to trying, and finally doing the operations. |
