As more companies are using e-learning courses to satisfy their training needs, in-depth evaluations of e-learning courses prior to their release to target audiences are becoming increasingly common. This book examines current literature in relation to instructional design and usability principles and takes a proactive approach to evaluating an e-learning course developed by a telecommunications company. The main aim of this book is to identify where this e-learning course does or does not comply with existing theoretical research on instructional design and usability principles. This book is perfect for companies striving to develop successful, instructional and usable e-learning courses.
