Content Types app for iPhone and iPad
‘InSight’ is EI Design’s ProductLine of online tutorials designed for global audience with varied experience levels. The first suite comprises of tutorials designed for aspiring eLearning professionals, on Instructional Design.
The five content types are factual data and each type presents its own challenges during ideation and visualisation. This app ties-in information types with distinctive visualisation approaches and interactions. The content is presented from an Instructional Designer’s perspective.
We have used a story-based approach (a storytorial) as an innovative and engaging strategy to present this information. We felt that instead of listing out or describing various content types and their visualisation techniques, it would be helpful for learners to go through a story that reflects this information in a much more engaging and interesting format.
The story introduces us to a team of Instructional Designers, who have been assigned the task of creating an eLearning course. Their analysis of the storyboard and its review and discussions around the ways to present the content for the eLearning course form the premise to present the information on content types.
The aim of the app is to enable learners to understand the different information types and map to suitable and relevant visualisation techniques. Using a story, the key concepts are presented in ways that can be practically applied to actual work environment.
For eLearning enthusiasts, we recommend our suite of 15 tutorials.
