Education

The changes in delivery and access methods at all levels of education from schools to further and higher education as well as ongoing adult and youth development is vital to keep our economy growing. MDC now work with many colleges, universities as well as learndirect and the SQA to provide high quality SCORM compliant learning objects for inclusion into a proprietary VLE.

Reusable Learning Objects

With more and more organisations adopting their own VLEs or LMSs, and working to standards such as SCORM, MDC have seen an increase in demand for Reusable Learning Objects (or Shareable Content Objects (SCOs)).

With rapid elearning development tools becoming more accessible, clients require MDC’s specific expertise in developing highly interactive learning objects which can then be integrated into any VLE such as:

  • Moodle
  • Thompson NetG
  • Blackboard
  • Teknical Virtual Campus
  • Fourpointlearning
  • Skillnet for learndirect

Benefits

Whilst systems like these often offer an integrated authorware /self build content functionality, which enable you to develop your own content, the content can end up as text heavy and bland. This does not contribute to the learning process and can turn learners off.

It is only e-Learning specialists like MDC Learning Systems, who have the right mix of skills to develop educationally effective materials. MDC are competent to develop and implement the appropriate multimedia animations that are going to truly improve learning, which can then be applied in the workplace and uploaded to your Content or Learning Management System.

Creating granularised objects means the objects can be reused in different contexts e.g. in different online courses or via different delivery methods. This provides an economically sounds model for content development.

Customisable Learning Activities

MDC can also create customisable learning objects – putting the client in control of the content whilst providing a highly complex animation developed by our team of experienced designers and learning technologists.

This approach delivers a high ROI and reflects the way in which the eLearning market is currently moving.
