Design Process and Design thinking
The design process is primarily about finding a solution to a problem. It is an important process to follow because it allows you to take on challenges with the use of design thinking and human psychology and analysis.
Design thinking is connected to the principles of the human-centric way. The art of design merges with the science of prototyping and testing.
Here are the steps in a few lines:
Ask
Define the needs

Video-Based Learning
We decided to build an e-learning platform where video plays a prominent role in learning because of the key role video plays in learning.
A elearning video provides more thorough absorption of information, resulting in a clearer and more distinctive understanding of the subject material.
Having a visually appealing eLearning video can help your audience process and retain information. By appealing to both sides of the brain, eLearning videos can help your audience process and retain information.
Our Video First e-learning platform (LMS) offers numerous video features:
1/ Interactive Video: Construct your own scenario through a series of choices.
2/ Video Quiz: Add a quiz to your video! It's simple and terribly efficient!
3/ Screen recording: Software training is perfect for video recording
4/ Video Test: Film your presentation or talk and receive feedback
5/ Screen recording : perfect for software training
Adding video to your eLearning course is simple. After you've created your eLearning video content, it's easy to incorporate it into your eLearning course.
Creativity leads to activities and Interactions.
The passive elearning course model must be abandoned in favor of one in which the learner is actively engaged.
An action map course should include prompts for the student to answer questions and perform tasks. This is an introductory course.
An action map may range from a simple list of tasks and activities to a more elaborate chart that illustrates the stages of reaching your destination. Mapping your objectives is critical because it helps you organise your thoughts and keeps you abreast of your destination.
Design Premium content and Brand your e-Learning Courses.
The format and variety of media used to convey your ideas and information must be appropriately tailored to the learning audience.
Professionally designed elearning courses and elearning course-based elearning videos can enhance the success of your courses.
When it comes to marketing your courses, branding is a critical factor. Working with an instructional designer, the subject matter expert should create relevant and engaging content.
About Creativity
The eLearning community is incredibly creative! I have seen and witnessed the creation of incredible projects where imagination and knowledge have come together to design memorable experiences!
I say experience because eLearning is ultimately not so much about the information you deliver but about the experience you build around the knowledge.
The difficulty of this exercise is to assemble the complex puzzle of the science of e-learning. It's about learner knowledge, challenges, aids, actions, objectives, motivation, clarity, etc etc etc....
And this pile of parameters must be structured for the most perfect experience or information retention and its ability to help the learner in his mission and ultimate goal.
And thank God in this difficult task creativity is at the rendezvous and the discipline becomes more and more exiting!
