Innovative Learning: Lessons from SIT’s Online Academy

How can you take all the knowledge from a company with over 20 years of teaching experience and translate it into powerful, engaging online content that aids the learning process?  While no easy feat, SIT was up for the challenge and consequently created its online eLearning venture, The Online Academy. Prior to its creation, SIT taught its methodology mainly through face-to-face facilitations, but the learning landscape is changing. An online learning environment lets one learn at their own pace, at flexible times, and from different devices. Moreover, technological advances permit wider information disbursement and enable SIT to address changing customer needs.

Research also backs it up; humor is not only critical in thought, it activates the brain's dopamine reward system, which means when used correctly, it boosts information retention (The Functional Anatomy of Humor- https://www.nature.com/articles/nn0301_237).

Humor is not the only method used for engaging users. The courses were also developed to offer interactive exercises catering to multiple learning styles. And by using a live presenter (thanks, NAME_4!), artsy animations, and story-telling, users can internalize their learnings. NAME_5, the Creative Director of Optimised Learning, Ltd., explains that animations can be “fun and quirky” and “when designed specifically with content in mind, it enhances the learning e Give two different versions of responses.
