12 Days of Christmas

The Housing e-Academy's
12 Days of Christmas!

13th – 24th December 2011

Please come back during this time to receive our special offers and 'Top Ten Tips' for e-learners.

13th December

Tip 1: Be an active learner. To attain e-learning success you must take an active role in your own learning. It just takes concentration and organisation!

14th December

Tip 2: Set aside time. Using e-learning is definitely a timesaver when it comes to training, however, you do have to invest quality time into it to see the best results – so switch off your phone and get stuck in!

15th December

Tip 3: Take control of your environment. Make sure the lighting and temperature in the room are adequate and that there isn't too much noise or distraction. Headphones are a great way to help you concentrate.

16th December

Tip 4: Meet the system requirements. Make sure your computer meets all system requirements (e.g. installed and updated Flash player) for your course before you set aside time to complete your e-learning.

17th December

Tip 5: List three things you must learn. Make a note of what you want to get out of the course before you begin. This will help you focus your time.

Tip 6: Retain what you learn. Make sure you immediately reinforce learning through practice quizzes and activities which will help you retain your new found knowledge.

20th December

Tip 7: Ask questions. There will usually be an email address or phone number you can use to answer any questions. Make sure you ask when you are unsure.

21st December

Tip 8: Utilise the extras. Additional resources, such as website links or downloadable content, are often available at the end of the e-learning course. You may want to create a 'training folder' on your computer to store them in.

22nd December

Tip 9: Do the pre-work. You may be asked to complete a pre-course task e.g. background reading or a questionnaire. If you complete these the learning process will be much more successful.

24th December

Tip 10: Evaluate the course. It is important for your own future benefit to fill in the e-learning evaluation. That way any technical glitches can be fixed rapidly and any content concerns can be looked at.
