As an eLearning Developer, I am always on the lookout for new ways to engage learners and create interactive content. Recently, I came across a fascinating blog post on the Articulate e-Learning Heroes website about using drag-and-drop interactions in e-learning.
Drag-and-drop interactions are a versatile tool that can be used to create engaging learning experiences. They encourage learners to interact with the screen and can be customized to fit the specific needs of a course.
The article highlights the importance of drag-and-drop interactions in e-learning design and challenges readers to share their own examples. This got me thinking about how I could incorporate drag-and-drop interactions into my future courses to make them more interactive and engaging.
🏆 Challenge of the Week
This week’s challenge is to create and share a drag-and-drop interaction to showcase how they can be used in e-learning. This is a great opportunity to experiment with different authoring tools and get creative with designing interactive content.
Note: It’s important to consider accessibility when designing drag-and-drop interactions. Learners who rely on keyboard navigation or screen readers may face barriers, so it’s essential to create inclusive experiences.
