Innovative improvements intensify
learner involvement and boost utilization
STAMFORD, CONNECTICUT, May 29, 2001 - PrimeLearning.com®™,
a leading international provider of business skills eLearning
solutions for the corporate training market, today launched
several new enhancements to its Prime eLearning curricula.
Training delivered via the improved Prime eLearning curricula
increases learner motivation and interaction. As a result,
the corporate buyer will notice a marked increase in performance
and, accordingly, an increased return-on-investment.
"There is no question that improved interaction enhances
adult learning," said Terry O’Brien, founder and
CEO of PrimeLearning.com®. "We have taken great pains
to imbed significant opportunity for increased involvement
in all new releases of the PrimeLearning.com® curricula. Whenever
we are considering making a change to our curricula, the litmus
test is, 'Will the change increase motivation, usage, and
return on investment?' We believe that adding increasingly
practical learning tools and providing additional opportunities
for workplace practice and more realistic testing, will allow
this to occur."
Improvements in the PrimeLearning.com® curricula include:
Increased interactivity through enhanced strategic use
of audio. In order to deepen the assimilation and retention
of key learning points, PrimeLearning.com® has strengthened
the usage of audio to punctuate primary information and increase
interactivity and retention. By meticulously weaving appropriate,
real-life communication into the eLearning experience, the
enhanced learning more closely simulates real workplace situations.
New skills through game-playing. It is a well-known
fact that students learn more easily when having fun. Realizing
this, PrimeLearning.com® is embedding game-based learning opportunities
into its eLearning system to dramatically increase user engagement
and motivation. This is yet another enhancement that provides
a highly engaging learning environment.
Improved assessment models. In everyday life, adults
learn by doing. Taking this into consideration, PrimeLearning.com®
has boldly revitalized their assessment approach with the
integration of more scenarios, application-based questions,
and enhanced answer recognition techniques.
"All of our eLearning features focus on the fundamental
critical success factor of transferring skills within an eLearning
environment," stated Fiona Howard, Vice President of
Product Development. "The unique combination of well-proven
adult learning principles and development of new features
that most appropriately simulate real-work situations and
increase interactivity and retention is what yields a high
return on investment from our system."
