Introduction
Danny Bauman, an esteemed lecturer on economics, asked to satisfy a need that came from the field: enabling e learning of economics courses to reinforce and complement academic studies, thus allowing those who do not attend university to learn economics on their own. With this in mind, one of the most interesting e-learning enterprises in recent years was born – e-Conomics.
The Challenge
An e-learning venture targeted to the general public is an extremely challenging endeavor. To create a feasible platform, content must be of high level and generate added value for the user. This is no easy task, especially when complex courses are involved. At any given time the content must be up to date, appealing and interactive, and the website must offer proven learning methodologies.
Moreover, for the enterprise to attract the target population, it must cope with the common challenges of any e-Commerce website: users must obtain a valuable, excellent product that they can consume as easily as possible. Any other solution would just not work.
The Solution
The e-learning website planned, designed and built by cdtech is rich in both content and capabilities. It includes marketing materials, notifications to customers and potential customers, several example tutorials that demonstrate the quality of the product to those interested in registering, and other content.
In functional terms, the website requires user name and password from registered users so that they can view the courses they purchased. The website is strongly protected in terms of security, and does not allow unauthorized access or copying content. e-Conomics features a full e-Commerce module in which students can select courses from a repository of courses and buy them online.
The content administrator benefits from a full Learning Content Management System (LCMS), where they can update courses at all times, upload new courses, include more practical exercises, and more.
In terms of learning, the website features:
- The possibility to view courses in asynchronous mode, including animation and narration
- Supplementary learning modules like professional Q&As
- Self-paced exercises and tests
- Real-time feedback for constant learning improvement
The Results
The results of e-Conomics exceeded all expectations. It became the marketing, sales and learning arm of Danny Bauman’s operation, which also includes frontal classroom studies. The website’s contents are constantly updated via the LCMS, complementing the teaching modules at both the administrative and pedagogical levels. The website is constantly being praised.
